Northside student artists won top honors at the TAEA Junior Visual Arts Scholastic Event (VASE).
Students must complete an individual student interview with a juror and also have their artwork assessed using a rigorous rubric that spans technical merit, critical judgement and expressive/aesthetic choices.
Northside ISD had 565 entries and of those, 463 were awarded the highest rating. Those artworks were then adjudicated in a second round where ten percent of all medalists were awarded a Platinum Medal. NISD had 38 Platinum awards.
