Newark, NJ — September 15, 2021 — Gallery Aferro, the new Northern New Jersey Affiliate Partner of the Alliance for Young Artists & Writers, the nonprofit organization that presents the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards, invites teens in Bergen, Essex, Passaic, Hudson, Morris, Sussex, Union, and Warren County to enter the country’s longest-running and most prestigious scholarship and recognition program for creative students.
The Northern New Jersey Art Region is one of the larger regions of the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards, with teens entering more than 4,000 original works of art each year. In its new role, Gallery Aferro will process these entries, coordinate the awards selection, and celebrate the award recipients and their educators. Notable artists in the community will adjudicate the Awards based on originality, technical skill, and the emergence of personal vision or voice and without knowledge of the student’s name, gender, age, ethnicity, or hometown.
