The ACSD Districtwide Art Show is a vibrant celebration of creativity and talent from students spanning kindergarten through 12th grade. Each piece on display reflects the unique vision and hard work of the young artists. Mrs. Cometto, a high school art teacher at Alden High School, shares that the show has grown larger and more impressive over the years. It features selected artworks from all grade levels, with seniors given the special opportunity to showcase a collection of their best pieces created throughout their high school years. The show continually evolves, highlighting fresh styles and new techniques as the students develop their skills.

One student artist, Izzy King, shares her journey into art, which began in primary school when a teacher encouraged her talent. Now fully invested in her passion, Izzy finds motivation in the joy of completing a piece that looks good and brings her happiness. The art show not only provides a platform for students to display their work but also inspires them to keep growing and creating. It’s a special occasion that brings the community together to appreciate the diverse talents within Alden’s schools.
