27th Annual High School Regional Juried Exhibition

From March 21 to April 24, 2026, Albany Center Gallery (ACG) presents the 27th Annual High School Regional Juried Exhibition, featuring the work of dozens of high school students throughout the region.

Artists, family, teachers, and friends private reception (not open to the public): March 20, 5 - 8 p.m. Contact Andrew at [email protected] for more details.

The exhibition features numerous works of art made by students from various high schools around the Capital Region, selected by jurors. More details to come.

The High School Regional highlights the importance of having arts programming within schools, cultivating imagination, and sharing the arts with youth; even at a young age. In years past, teachers from all over the Capital Region have sent in hundreds of diverse student works that demonstrate the varying skills and ideas of a large group of young, burgeoning creatives. The wide-ranging selection of works reflects the unique perspectives of our next generation through the powerful outlet of art. Art inspires youth to be engaged with their community and themselves. The youth are the future; let’s continue to support them and their creative voices.

The High School Regional was put together in collaboration with Albany Center Gallery, the New York State Art Teacher’s Association, Region 6, and the Capital Area Art Supervisors.

Jurors for the 27th Annual High School Regional Juried Exhibition:
