The Biddeford School Department is proud to announce its annual District-Wide K-12 Student Art Show, set to take place on Wednesday, March 5, 2025, from 4:30 to 7:00 p.m. at Biddeford Middle School. This event will celebrate the creativity and artistic achievements of students from all grade levels, featuring a diverse range of artistic expressions.
“This show is a testament to the incredible talent and dedication of our students and art educators,” said Jeremy Ray, Superintendent of Biddeford School Department. “The arts play a critical role in fostering creativity, self-expression, and problem-solving skills, and we are thrilled to provide a platform for our students to share their work with the community.”
The exhibit will highlight student works across multiple genres, including painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, mixed media, ceramics, printmaking, digital art, and textile arts. Attendees will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the artistic journey of Biddeford students, gaining insight into the talent fostered within the district's art programs.
Biddeford High School Art Teacher Elizabeth Ames adds, “March is Youth Arts Month, which is a celebration of creativity for all of our students. Just last month, two of our students were recognized for their award-winning artwork in the prestigious Scholastic Art and Writing Awards, and their artwork is on display at the Maine College of Art & Design (MECA) in Portland from March 7th through March 31st between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. We hope families will visit both events to enjoy the caliber of art our youth are producing.”
The Biddeford Art Show is free and open to the public. Families, community members, and art enthusiasts are encouraged to attend and celebrate the artistic achievements of Biddeford’s students. For more information, please contact the Biddeford School Department at (207) 282-8280.
