Every year Thomas More University puts on an exhibition of talented artists from the high school juniors and seniors in our region. Work is submitted by students or teachers and is juried by the Thomas More’s chapter of Kappa Pi, an international arts honors society. High school seniors who enter the exhibition, are juried into the exhibition, checked the scholarship box on the artwork label, and have been accepted by the University have a chance to win art scholarships worth up to $10,000.
