Every year the Art Centre hosts an exhibition comprised of works of art created by the many talented young artist attending schools in St. Thomas and Elgin County. This exhibition allows hundreds of students the opportunity to share their talent and accomplishments with family, friends, teachers and the entire community. The Art Centre has long realized the importance of showcasing the artwork of students. It is an experience that many students will remember for a lifetime and others will use as a stating point in pursuing their life's ambitions. For our community, these two student art exhibitions are energetic, welcoming, and something we can all take pride in.
