Avon High School is excited to announce another successful showing from our students in the Regional Scholastic Art Show. In total, 55 works were accepted with eight Gold Keys (highest honor), 12 Silver Keys, and 35 honorable mentions earned.

Now in its 56th year in the Lorain County region, the show takes place in the Beth K. Stocker Gallery at the Stocker Arts Center on the campus of Lorain County Community College, 1005 N.
