Students from Whitney Point High School's Art Department earned top recognition at this year's 2026 Emerging Artists High School Show & Competition, a juried exhibition co-sponsored by The Fine Arts Society of the Southern Tier (FASST) and the Broome County Arts Council.
Congratulations to these talented student artists!
Alyssa Widdall, who received the President's Emerging Artist Award for her painting "A Little Bit Rusty."
Allison Zembek, whose mixed media piece "View from the Visitor's Center" garnered a first-place win in that category.
Finally, Ava Oliver's charcoal still life received an Honorable Mention in this prestigious regional competition.
As a 1st-place winner, Allison's piece will be featured in the FAAST Members Art Show & Awards Ceremony at 5:30 p.m. on May 18 at the Vestal Library, and she will receive a free month of membership in FAAST!
Want to see these outstanding pieces in person? The 2026 Emerging Artists Exhibition, a collaboration between the Broome County Arts Council and the Fine Arts Society of the Southern Tier, is on display through March at the Artisan Gallery in the Endicott-Johnson Watson Cultural Center, 53 McKinley Avenue, Endicott.
