Artists on the Rise is a collection of work from high school aged artists. While most of the pieces come from students in the greater Danbury area, other parts of the state are also represented. The exhibition includes art and fine craft from over 110 students in a wide range of media including drawing and painting, jewelry, fiber, ceramics, and more.
The inspiration for the art comes from their own experiences, and it reflects a diverse exploration of creative endeavors. This juried event provides young artists the opportunity to have their work shown to the public in a professional environment. Awards are presented across media and for best in show.
Brookfield Craft Center would like to thank Jewelry Designs and Kellie Martone & Associates for their generous sponsorship of Artists on the Rise.
