Now in its fourth year, Showcase of Excellence at Tryon Fine Arts Center is making it easier to celebrate high school artists.

The community is invited to visit the Tryon Fine Arts Center Facebook page at facebook.com/tryonarts and vote for their favorite young artist by “liking” the image of the artwork. The piece with the most likes will be announced at the reception and live art auction on Sunday, April 23 at 4 p.m. at TFAC.

“The incredible submissions have been professionally juried and awarded,” said Michelle Fleming, marketing manager of TFAC. “But we wanted to make the exhibit more interactive and with a little more fun by inviting the community to vote on our Facebook page. These students should be very proud of their work, and this is another opportunity for them to be appreciated.”

Showcase of Excellence features work in six mediums from eight area high schools. The artwork is on display in TFAC’s Gallery I until April 23, or by visiting Tryon Fine Arts Center’s Facebook page.

Additional information and tickets to the April 23 reception are available at tryonarts.org.
