For the past thirteen years, the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art has organized and presented NewArt Northwest Kids, an annual K–12 juried student exhibition. This year’s theme, Art, Hope and Resilience, encouraged students to share their own stories from 2020 through words and images. The selected artwork documents their experience of the challenges witnessed this past year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, racism and violence, and fires which displaced many of our fellow Oregonians. The works of art reveal the resilience of each student and their hope for a brighter future.
The JSMA recognizes the teachers, parents, and administrators from the following schools, who submitted artwork.
