About the Exhibit

This year's theme is "What Inspires You!" and has resulted in an exhibit of inspiring and exceptional works from Murfreesboro's talented young artists.  Each year, the Murfreesboro Art Committee hosts a show and competition for Murfreesboro City Schools students in grades Kindergarten through 6th grade.  Art Teachers at each school select the best works from each grade to be in the show according to the following criteria: best interpretation of the theme; creativity; originality; presentation or craftsmanship; and best overall impression.  The show is juried and awards are given for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and Honorable Mention.  Additionally, awards are presented for "Best in Show", "Best Teacher in Show", and "Best School in Show".

Every work exhibited in this show will be entered into the "Winner's Circle" art show and competition at MTSU, where the works will be on exhibit at MTSU's Todd Art Gallery from May 9 - May 22, 2018.
