50th Anniversary of CCHS Art Show at Concord Art!
The Concord-Carlisle High School Show has been an annual exhibition at Concord Art for fifty years- this year is our 50th anniversary!
The exhibition will be on view in the main galleries, and feature portfolios from CCHS seniors in the Roberts Gallery (upstairs), and work by CCHS teachers in the Abbot Gallery (downstairs). Adjacent from the Abbot, we will have a selection of work by our founder, Elizabeth Wentworth Roberts.
The David Prifti Memorial Awards and our art committee juries the work and decides the winners. David Prifti was a beloved CCHS photography teacher and a beloved Concord Art Art and Exhibition Committee Chair. Prizes are allotted differently each year, depending on the senior portfolios. Some years there is one winner for each medium (ceramics, 2D, photography) or there have been years when just one senior portfolio wins all the prize money.
This year Concord Art has coordinated with CCHS Art Teacher, Joseph Pickman, who will be helping the students prep their portfolios for install. The CCHS show will be juried after installation, and a selection of students will be given awards for their work.
The awards will be announced during our online reception over Zoom on Thursday, May 20.
