County-wide high school art show slated for four day run

Beginning Feb. 4 at the Whitman County Library, high school students from around the county will exhibit work, culminating in a “Meet the Artists” event Feb. 7.

County art teachers met Wednesday, Jan. 16, to coordinate plans for the exhibit, which will feature art from approximately 145 students.

“For one thing, we’ve had some amazing lessons coming from the different teachers around the county,” said Cheryl Lothspeich, art teacher for Colfax High. “And the kids have gotten to choose their own assignments to feature.”

The art shown will be from first semester.
