Youngstown State art students show off their work at annual exhibition
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio (WKBN) — The annual show highlighting the best work of Youngstown State art students began Friday evening on campus.
Their works were displayed at the McDonough Museum of Art as part of the 88th annual Juried Art and Design Exhibition. 21 students received awards with the top prize, the Community Excellence Award, going to senior Caitlin Martin of Mineral Ridge.
Her sculpture was titled Acropora's Ghost — Acropora being a type of coral.
'So I've always loved the ocean. My family's always done vacations near the ocean so I wanted to do my own representation of corals,' Martin said.
The art show runs through April 4.
