The purpose of the Art Honor Society is to inspire and recognize those students who have a profound love or art and demonstrate creative talent. Members work to promote art in the school, community and internationally through various activities and service projects. They help one another to achieve the highest standards and share the importance of art education throughout the district, the community and beyond.

Interim District Director of Fine and Performing Arts Thomas N. Gellert opened the evening by welcoming the crowd and congratulating the soon to be new members of the organization before leading everyone in the Pledge of Allegiance.

Refreshments were served in the auditorium lobby following the ceremony.
