Student work exhibited at Waupaca library
The artwork of Waupaca’s elementary, middle and high school students is on display in the Waupaca Area Public Library’s Exhibit Room.
The annual exhibit takes place during Youth Art Month, which is observed every March.
It is free to the public during library hours and runs until Saturday, April 4.
The exhibit room is located in the library’s lower level.
Art teachers at each school chose the artwork, and local judges selected the top pieces.
The students were honored during a March 3 reception.
