All Connecticut art students in public, parochial, and private schools are able to participate and submit high quality art work.  Each Connecticut Art teacher may submit up to 4 students' works. Student artwork is juried by professional artists and university art faculty and is selected on merit for inclusion in a statewide art exhibition held at the Hartford Art School. Beyond the honor of being selected for this high quality exhibit, students may be awarded gold or silver keys and honorable mention places in each of 17 media categories. The winners of the gold key award at the close of the exhibit  have their artwork submitted digitally to the National Level Scholastic Art Awards. A national jury will choose works for exhibit in the National Show held in June 2015.
