From November 6th- December 1st, the Harper Area Art show is displaying works of local art students. Works by students 13 local high schools are displayed as part of the show.

Because school was allowed to submit 30 pieces to the art exhibition, 30 SHS students are  participating in this year’s competition.

“Viewing the show is a fantastic way to feel inspired by artwork,” Ms. Govic, an art teacher at Schaumburg high school stated.
