An in-person open house plus awards ceremony will be held at CMA on First Friday, April 7th, 2023 from 5:00PM-7:00PM with the awards portion starting at 6:00PM.  Awards include First, Second and Third Place winners each receiving a financial award to be used for College enrollment fees.  $2,000 for First Place, $1,500 for Second Place and $1,000 for Third Place.  Honorable mention awards will also be presented to 10 students, with each winner receiving a scholarship for classes with the CMA’s School of Art.
