Dear Friend of the Arts
Friends of Lynn Travis Stender have asked that
Women In The Visual Arts (WITVA) start a
scholarship fund in her honor. She has chosen to
use the donations for the high school students
participating in our annual art exhibit
showcasing their work.
Women in the Visual Arts is sponsoring the WITVA

the awards ceremony and reception at Sugar Sand

WITVA 13th ANNUAL SPRING
CELEBRATION OF HIGH SCHOOL ART 2009 Enc.
HIGH SCHOOL ART IS EXHIBITED
AT
SUGAR SAND PARK, 300 Military Trail, Boca
Raton, FL.
All of the High Schools of Palm
Beach County are invited to participate.
We
receive entries from 16 or 17 schools each year.
This is the 14th Annual Exhibit. The art teachers choose the
best work in their class. WITVA’s jurying committee
selects the “best of the best”. The “Spring Celebration
of H.S. Art” committee solicits scholarships and awards
from the community. The Grand Prize of $500 cash is the
“WITVA Presidents Award”. Many of our members; Friends
of the Arts; Jerry’s ARTARAMA; Blick Art Materials;
Cheap Joe’s Art Supplies; Daler Rowney Art Supplies;
Golden Artist Colors. Inc.; Jack Richeson & Co. and
Utrecht Art Supplies donate either money or supplies to
this worthy program. These are awarded to the best work
in each category (2-dimensional, collage, photography,
jewelry, and sculpture). Since our program began in 1997
we have awarded over $75,000.00 to the art students of
Palm Beach County.
 Each
participant receives a “CERTIFICATE OF PARTICIPATION”
and the teachers receive a “CERTIFICATE OF APPRECIATION”
for their efforts on behalf of the students. This
program is very important to the students and teachers
of Palm Beach County. It gives them the opportunity to
exhibit the wonderful quality of the work and talent of
the participants, and to have their work shown to the
community for the month that it is on display at SUGAR
SAND PARK COMMUNITY CENTER.
At the end of the Exhibit WITVA and SUGAR SAND PARK join
together for a Reception and Awards Presentation for the
participants. This afternoon usually attracts an
audience of over 200 people. This event gives the
students, teachers and families a chance to enjoy the
park as well as the very exciting art.
If you are interested in donating an award, please
contact WITVA at 561-997-6148;
Or send your donation to: ATT: Phyllis C. Annunziato,
