Students from all Oceana County schools were invited to submit their artwork. Best of Show, People’s Choice, first, second and third place in 2D and 3D art winners were awarded monetary prizes for their placement. Voting by the community determined the winners of the People’s Choice awards, while professional local artists juried the remaining categories.
