The Ohio Governor’s Youth Art Exhibition, now in its forty-fourth year, is dedicated to the educational and artistic advancement of our talented young people in the state of Ohio. The exhibition is open to all of Ohio’s 1,112 high schools, both public and private, chartered by the State of Ohio Department of Education. Our purpose is to provide all budding young artists of the state with opportunities to advance their talent, whether that be through scholarships or simply experiencing the process of entering their work in a competition. The exhibition is a valuable incentive for our young people; it encourages an appreciation for the arts throughout Ohio and reflects the fine quality of art instruction and talent which exist in our state.
The process of selecting artworks for the state exhibition begins on a regional level. The state is divided into 15 regional locations, with high school students in each region invited to enter work in that regional judging. Each region has a designated Regional Director, who is responsible for choosing the judges for his or her region and arranging specifics of the event.
The state judging takes place in Columbus; however, the judges for this level of competition are chosen from all over the country and are generally professional artists, college level instructors, or both.
From the 12,000 regional entries from the 15 regions, approximately 2,500 are selected to enter the state judging. State jurors then select 300 for the actual exhibition, with 25 of the 300 chosen to receive the Governor’s Award of Excellence. Scholarships are offered to seniors by over 30 universities and colleges of art. The selection of students to be offered scholarships is left strictly up to those institutions who offer them.
Below is a sampling of some of the 60 entries by this year’s OHHS Art students. Congratulations on being selected by your instructor for participation!
The Art Institute of Ohio-Cincinnati, will host its 3rd Annual National Art Teachers Appreciation Show (“NATAS”) Gallery Exhibit March 3rd –March 31st 2014, featuring the works of high school arts and media instructors in Cincinnati and surrounding counties.
The purpose of this Exhibit is two-fold – one, to provide art and media teachers with the opportunity to display their personal works of creative expression on our campus, and two, to honor their dedication to their students as they prepare them for what hopes to be a promising future.
A reception will be held on March 13th at 5:00 pm to honor our exhibitors. Come celebrate the work of Jamie Schorsch and Bridget Dignan-Cummins and the dedication and commitment each extends to their students throughout the year.

A husband and wife team have started a scholarship for high school seniors who wish to pursue a college degree in the visual arts field. It’s only available to students in Ohio, but they can go to any art school or 2-4 year college as long as it’s in the US. The scholarship is for $2000 for the 2014-2015 academic school year.
Full details & downloadable PDF application on my website for review.

We started the Zinggia Art Scholarship to help students further their education in visual arts (general art, painting, illustration, design, photography, printmaking, sculpture). The mission of the scholarship is to provide financial assistance to students whose creativity, inventiveness, and desire for foil-wrapped burrito goodness knows no limits.
