Perry Central School Senior Emma Gifford will showcase the results of her year-long intensive study as the 2023 -2024 Youth Visual Artist Scholar with the opening of her solo exhibition at the ACWC on Friday, May 3, at 6:30 PM.

Emma’s scholarship offered her the opportunity to study primarily with master potter Clare Keating for a year to build on the knowledge she acquired through her high school art program in ceramics and glass. She brings passion and love for these two media along with dedication and determination to her studies and we will see that represented in the new work she has produced for her May exhibition, “VARIATIONS.” The ACWC congratulates Emma on this incredible accomplishment and also on her recent acceptance into the art program at Keuka College!

The public is invited to come cele- brate Emma’s accomplishment at the opening reception on May 3 at the ACWC. The exhibition ends May 31.
