Huge congratulations to Lilou P. from John Shields Elementary and Oona O. from McDole Elementary! 🎨✨

Their artwork was selected for the Illinois Art Education Association’s (IAEA) annual student art show! Out of more than 600 submissions statewide, judges chose only 45 outstanding K-12 pieces to represent student art across Illinois. Both students were celebrated at the IAEA Award Ceremony & Reception held last weekend!

📍 Mark your calendars: The IAEA traveling art show will stop at the Sugar Grove Library in February 2027, so you’ll be able to see their incredible work in person! 👏🖌️
