The Young People’s Fine Arts Festival (YPFAF) is the Arts Council of Moore County’s way of showcasing the artistic talents of students in grades K-12 from all Moore County public, private, charter and home schools. Chosen by each school, all entries are exhibited at Campbell House Galleries during March, “Art in Schools” month. The exhibit is free and open to the public, thanks to the sponsorship of George W. Little & Associates, Town of Southern Pines, and Whistle Stop Press.
In addition to the exhibit, the high school students’ entries were judged by Anne Rawson of the Arts Council of Fayetteville & Cumberland County. She chose the following winners for the 2012 Young People’s Fine Arts Festival:
