Jazz Era, a charcoal and watercolor work by Alyse Stewart, was selected for special Gallery Recognition at the Dare County Youth Exhibition on display at Glenn Eure’s Ghost Fleet Gallery in Nags Head through January 18. She is an eleventh grade student at Manteo High School.

Also catching the judge’s eye was the delightful Woman’s Face, created by First Flight Elementary School second grader Charlie Slater.

Eighth grade students at Manteo Middle School outdid themselves in this year’s exhibition with paintings made during canvas and vinyl (using old LPs) pours. Their collaborative displays are available for viewing at the gallery during show hours, noon to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
