The 2021 Columbiana County Art Show, hosted by the county ESC, looked a little different this year. While people weren’t able to walk around and explore all of the talented submissions from students across the county, the show did continue in a different manner. Artwork was on display at the ESC where judges were able to view their works and vote on entries. Pictured are Best in Show winners.

Local students were among those honored during the 2020 Scholastics Art and Writing Competition.
Over 40 teachers from Trumbull, Mahoning, Columbiana, and Ashtabula counties entered over 300 works from students in drawing, painting, photography, digital art, and more to be judged at the regional level to see who would represent our area and compete at the national level this coming spring.
United High School received two Silver Keys by Shyanna Coleman and Victoria Solomon (educator Heather Connor).
Also receiving recognition were Grant Menough, Makenna While, and Zac Watkins of Salem. Grant received four Silver keys (one being on his portfolio) with Makenna and Zac each receiving one. Grant also received a Gold Key in the show for his oil painting titled Tyler. Grant’s Gold Key piece will now move onto New York and compete at the national level this coming spring.
