Five NCHS students have art on display in the Daura Museum of Art's selective "High School Invitational Art Exhibit." Congrats to Audrey Watts, Lailee Pollard, Natalie Rivera, Emily Johnson, and Mary Jo Allen. The show is open 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tues.-Sat. at the University of Lynchburg's Dillard Fine Art Bldg (in the "Lobby Gallery" on the lower level). The exhibit is also a competition, and the winner(s) will be announced on the show's last day, Thursday, November 14th during a closing event from 6 p.m. to 7. Nine schools were invited and, in all, there are around 50 top-level high school artworks in the show. The venue is around 45 minutes from NCHS.
