Inter-school Art Exhibition

by __________, Class VIII

An Inter-school Art Exhibition was organised by our school on 18 August 20XX in the school auditorium. Students from eight neighbouring schools participated in painting, sketching, poster-making and mixed-media displays.

The exhibition was inaugurated by a local artist in the presence of teachers, participants and visitors. Each school displayed selected student work in labelled sections. Judges interacted with participants and evaluated originality, technique and presentation.

Following the judging, prizes were awarded in different categories. The Chief Guest appreciated the students’ imagination and encouraged them to observe everyday life closely for artistic ideas.

The exhibition was a successful celebration of creativity and gave students an opportunity to learn from one another’s work.
