Through the Looking Glass: Vision from the Penn Wood Class of 2018 features artwork in oil painting, ceramics, drawing, and sculpture of nearly 20 of our local community’s most talented high school seniors.
Serving on behalf of the Lansdowne Borough Council, the Arts Board is pleased to showcase the work of these gifted students.
The students whose work will be featured in Through the Looking Glass are Motunrayo Agbeye, Jestina Bao, Pewu Besson, Azar Clarkson, Nadiah Davis, Vickiana Dulcio, Martha Freeman, Danaé Holmes, Tymara Jones-Love, Jazmine Lane, Hosni El Myatt-Knox, Ixchele Ortiz, Imani Medina, Taléna Mitchell, Dynesha Robinson, Myles Smith, Kiera Stevens, and Kelly Young.
The students include several members of the National Art Honor Society and National Honor Society; an artist who received an Emerging Artist Award from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts; students who have had work exhibited in the Tyler School of Art Clay Programs of Excellence in Philadelphia Area High Schools Exhibit and in the Delaware County Community College Annual Regional High School Art Exhibition; and students who have had their work judged by and awarded at the Penn Wood Annual Juried Art Show by noted professional artists.
They worked under the direction of Penn Wood High School Art Teachers Kay Lord and Alyce Grunt, and the exhibit would not have been possible without Lord’s and Grunt’s assistance.
“This past spring, 20*20 Gallery in Lansdowne visited Penn Wood High School to select artwork created by graduating seniors for this special exhibition,” said Kay Lord. “This new show is a wonderful way for the community to view some of the drawings, paintings, ceramics, and sculpture created by our hardworking and talented students. As one of the art teachers at Penn Wood, I am excited and appreciative that these young people have this exceptional opportunity to showcase their work, and I am honored to have been a part of their artistic journey.”
Asked about the exhibit, Alyce Grunt stated, “This show celebrates the visual arts at Penn Wood! This is a great opportunity for students, their families, and neighbors to see students’ artistic accomplishments and wish them well as they pursue their education after Penn Wood.”
Penn Wood High School is located in Lansdowne, PA and is part of the William Penn School District. Jane Ann Harbert, Superintendent of Schools, is elated about and grateful for the opportunity this exhibit provides. “I’m thankful to the Lansdowne Arts Board for this opportunity. Not only is it a chance for our students to showcase their tremendous artistic talents, but also an opportunity for the greater community to gather, enjoy the work, and show support for our young people. Further, it provides an experience in a professional gallery setting that some of our young people have not yet experienced.”
