As part of our commitment to bring art education into the community, a Youth Art Competition was integrated into the art show. Sponsored by Jeffrey Charles Photography, students in grades K-8 or ages 5-13 were encouraged to enter his/her original art that was displayed in the art show duration of the event. There was $500 in prizes presented as students were exposed to the rules and entrepreneurship opportunity of doing art shows for a living! A special “thank You” to Nalin Isme, Painting, the Youth Art Judge and Lindsay Bochenek, with Miss Lindsay’s Art Room at Steinway in Commerce.
Nalin has participated in Hot Works shows since he was age 5, he is now age 15. He participates in most of Hot Works Florida shows selling his work. He has been a youth art award winner 30x in Hot Works art shows! Lindsay is an art teacher at Steinway in Commerce and is taking on new art students. She has been part of this program for many years!
