2022-23 Scholastic Art Award Recipients

For 20 years St. Stephen’s has been honored to host the annual Scholastic Art Awards – the nation’s longest-running and most prestigious recognition program for creative teens. This year the Austin Texas Art Region, which includes Williamson, Travis and Hayes Counties, received over 1600 individual submissions and forty-two senior portfolios that were adjudicated by a panel of creative professionals this past Saturday.

The artwork of seniors Eric Xie, Jacob McDaniel, Chelsea Xue were chosen to receive Gold & Silver Key awards for their senior portfolios. All Gold Key work is currently being reviewed by panels of creative professionals in New York City . National Medalists will be announced in late March. Jerry Zhang, who's Gold Key painting was nominated for the American Vision Award, will be reviewed at the national adjudication level.

Congratulations to Jerry, and to all of the St. Stephen's students who have been recognized!

 

The Gold Key artwork will be on display in the Scanlan Art Gallery through Feb. 10. St. Stephen’s will be hosting the Awards Ceremony and Celebration on Sunday, Jan. 29 from 1-3:30 p.m. The Scholastic Awards ceremony will start at 1:30 p.m.
