The 2017-2018 school year marks the fifth anniversary of the new Blacksburg High School. To honor this occasion, the year has been designated as the Year of the Artist, with events throughout the year showcasing all levels of artistic excellence in every facet of the school: performance, visual, academic, literary, scientific, and athletic artistic expression. This exhibition at the Moss Arts Center offers a broad selection of artwork created by Blacksbuerg High students thus far in the Year of the Artist.

The Moss Arts Center joins Blacksburg High School to celebrate its “Year of the Artist” which include the Holiday Showcase performance along with a special exhibition of student artwork that will fill the center’s gallery spaces. The exhibition opens with a reception on December 13th at 6 pm and will be on view for the public at the Moss Arts Center through December 20th.

The work will be on display in the Miles C. Horton Jr. Gallery, Ruth C. Horton Gallery, Sherwood Payne Quillen '71 Reception Gallery, and the Francis T. Eck Exhibition Corridor, located in the Moss Arts Center at 190 Alumni Mall.
