The Seniors of Hardy Williams High School
April - a month of Growth. Cultivation. Revitalization. New Beginnings. What better way to celebrate the coming of Spring than by showcasing the blossoming talents of up-and-coming young artists?
This April, we are excited to host local Philadelphia artist Dominique Samarco as she exhibits alongside her senior art students. Bringing new work and real talent to the table, the students of Hardy Williams High School are here to show all of Philly that a school art room is nothing to be underestimated!
Donations from the show go towards supporting the arts in education. Let’s work together to cultivate the burgeoning creativity of our youth!
