Forty-six years ago, the New Artist Exhibition was established to recognize the best high school artists in the area for their creativity, talent, and dedication. New Artists 2025 is made possible by the ongoing collaboration between the Art Museum of Greater Lafayette, the Art League, high school teachers, students, and private partners.

Over 120 pieces were accepted from high school students from 6 regional schools. Jurors Rebecca Robinson and Kendall Smith carefully reviewed each entry to select award winners in 8 categories and Best of Show. Additionally, special awards were given by local businesses and individuals. This year, over $7,500 in prizes were available, split between 84 awards.

Congratulations to the area teachers, students, and supportive parents represented in the 2025 New Artists Exhibition.
