Yesterday, several National Art Honor Society members installed Sheboygan North High students’ artwork at the John Michael Kohler Arts Center’s Youth Art EXPO. Under the guidance of JMKAC’s Programming and Engagement Coordinator, Claire Carlson, art students curated the submitted work and installed the work of their peers.

Join us for an opening reception on Thursday, March 21st from 4 – 6:30 pm at the Social Studio, 608 New York Avenue, Sheboygan.

This exhibition is part of the Youth Art Month celebration across the United States.

The Sheboygan North High Art Department became a National Art Honor Society (NAHS) chapter in 2018. This is the first chapter of its kind in our North High history dedicated to the visual arts and art education.

Visual arts education is essential to 21st-century learning. As a NAHS chapter, we utilize NAEA (National Art Education Association) to stay ahead of developments in the field of arts education by being introduced to a broad perspective of important research, issues, and policy trends that are important. As an NAHS chapter, we are connected to thousands of chapters from around the U.S. who are passionate about the integral role of the visual arts in ensuring all students to receive a high-quality, effective, and well-rounded education. 

We believe that the National Art Honor Society will provide our students with pathways leading to career and college readiness. In addition, introducing them to diverse art experiences beyond the walls of Sheboygan North High School aimed to expand their creative minds, gain new art skills, collaborate, and provide them with leadership opportunities, which will contribute to their personal, artistic, and academic growth.
