WHAT IT IS:
Ferndale, MI (March 1, 2017) The Artist In You is a community-wide celebration of student art, featuring works by young talents in the Ferndale School District, University High, and Center for Advance Studies and the Arts (CASA).  Students will compete to have their winning pieces converted into public art.

A public reception with live music will take place Tuesday, April 25 from 6-9pm at the Ferndale Public Library to celebrate the young talent and art in the community. One student artist is eligible to have their artwork enlarged, reproduced, mounted, and displayed on one prominent business in the Ferndale Area. 

The three top scoring 2D artists will receive Achievement Awards; $200, $100, and $50, respectively. Student artwork will be showcased at the Library.
