“On behalf of the art department, I’d like to say that this partnership with the AOY Art Center is a win-win for both the students of Pennsbury and the community. We appreciate all the extra effort that AOY is contributing to host this student show and we are excited this will provide more community exposure for the work of our students and their teachers,” Ruth Anne Schultz, Pennsbury’s art curriculum coordinator, said.
First prize is $500, with a second-place prize of $300, and $200 for third-place honors. Three $50 gift certificates from Jerry’s Artarama will also be awarded as honorable mentions.

The jurors for the art show are established artists Donna Lynn Sheehan and Connie Dierks, both Bucks County residents.
The funds for the prizes come from a donation made by AOY member Fran Leyenberger in memory of her husband, Chris.
