Exhibit Details
March 4, 2023 - April 23, 2023
Weisel and Kelly Galleries
Every March, the Springfield Art Museum invites student artists from across our community, in Kindergarten through 12th Grade, to exhibit outstanding artwork in the All School Exhibition. A celebration of Youth Art Month, this highly anticipated show has been a staple of our exhibition schedule since 1932, making it our longest running exhibition initiative.
As the art teachers who work with these students know, art is a powerful educational tool. In addition to creativity and self-expression, the arts teach problem solving, critical thinking, innovation and collaboration. Artwork created by children and teenagers is often relegated to education wings or hallways when it is displayed in museums. By showcasing students’ work in one of its primary gallery spaces, the Springfield Art Museum seeks to highlight the importance of arts education and honor the accomplishments of young artists.
The exhibit also reflects the work of the incredibly talented teachers in our community, many of whom are practicing artists themselves. Faculty members from public, private, parochial schools, and home school cooperatives select the artwork for exhibition each year, and a dedicated team of teachers and students from Springfield Public Schools installs the art in the galleries with assistance from our curatorial staff.
