It's that time again for the High School Art Exhibit at the Peteetneet Museum and Cultural Arts Center in Payson. Participating schools are Spanish Fork High, Salem Hills High, and Payson High School. Organizers have just put it up and entries have been judged. Now it is time for the public to visit the exhibit and enjoy the fruits of the student artists’ labor.
“We have a lot of really good art and I'm always happy to see what the students have created,” said
Rebecca Peery, Peteetneet Art Council President. This year’s exhibit includes a wide range of mediums
in two dimensional art, photography, ceramics and metal sculpture.

thought and energy into their art piece. I encourage all the students to continue to create and improve
their craft throughout their life."
