Cadiz, KY--The Janice Mason Art Museum is proud to present Student Expressions, works by Trigg County High School and Trigg County Middle School art students beginning February 4.  More than 150 works in a variety of media will be on display.  

            “This is the first time we’ve had the opportunity to showcase the talents of  Trigg County school students beyond elementary school, and we’re so excited, “ said Museum Administrator Martha Davis.  “We certainly encourage everyone to take a few minutes to visit this show; the work of these students is remarkable and no one will go away disappointed.” 

John Jones, Trigg County High School art teacher, also holds a current position on the Museum’s Board of Directors.  “The partnership between the school system and the Museum is a real bonus in my job,” said Jones.  “Middle School art teacher Dani Knight and I are pleased with our students’ work and love the opportunity for many more people to enjoy it by offering the show in a gallery setting.”

The exhibit opens with a reception on Friday, February 4 from 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM, and will exhibit through February 28.  Museum hours are 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM Monday – Saturday and 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM Sunday.  Admission is free; donations greatly appreciated.  For more information visit the Museum’s website at www.jmam.org, or call 270 522-9056.
