Davis Monthly Planner
Student Art Submissions
Front cover of the 2023-2024 Davis Monthly Planner & Art Education Advocacy Guide.
Every year, we create the Davis Monthly Planner, an Art Advocacy Planning Guide to promote the importance of providing a quality art education for all K–12 students. Striking student artwork graces the front and back cover of the planner each year. For the 2023/24 planner, we received dozens of student artwork submissions! Congrats to this year’s winning artist, Rene T. The Lost Tail was submitted by art educator Leah Shuck from West Allegheny High School in Imperial, PA.
A tremendous thank you to all the educators who submitted their students’ works! We, at Davis and SchoolArts, are in awe of this wealth of creativity and talent! We received so many amazing artworks we had to show them off! Check out some of the other submissions we received from across the country (we’re sad we couldn’t fit them all).
Get the upcoming planner at the 2023 NAEA National Convention or request a copy at DavisArt.com/Planner after April 1st.
