"I look forward to this level of education to see how our pop culture influences the work of the art student. It is quite telling what is on the minds of our youth and emerging artists," said Michele Wilkinson, Pryor Art Gallery curator. "The art teachers of Maury County are doing a great job of helping their students see their surroundings with an objective eye."
The exhibit features diverse artwork in a variety of mediums from students who attend Maury County middle and high schools.
