Visual Arts and Media Arts students attending Central Valley High School earned top awards in the student art show in Modesto including Paris Reyes for “Best of Show,” Natali Vidrio for third place in 2-D, as well as the top three prizes in photography by Angelica Sanchez, Alyssa Amador and Meztli Perez.

Seven other CV students earned Honorable Mentions.

Their artwork will be on display at the Mistlin Gallery at 1015 J Street until March 26. The gallery is open 11:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesdays through Fridays, and noon to 4 p.m. on Saturdays. 

The “Young @ Art Show” is Mistlin’s annual showcase of work by students from pre-school to high school. Over 200 works are taken in, made by students from throughout the county.

Angelica Sanchez won first place for her entry, “Looking in Through the Pathways.”

Second place went to a work of Alyssa Amador she named “Luminous.”

Due to some confusion, a second place is also going to Meztli Perez for his entry, “Mind as a Movie.”
