ASTORIA – Grace Episcopal Church will be displaying a special art exhibit combining the artistic talents of Astoria High School students from Feb. 21 to March 28. This the second annual Astoria High School student art show organized by Nhakira La Pointe and Rachel Lertora, two Astoria High School sophomores.

The 30 artists will be displaying their work using multiple mediums ranging from oil pastels and watercolors to spray paint and Balsa-Foam. This year the students’ art will be for sale, something new that was not a part of last year’s show. A percentage of the sales will go to the Astoria High School Art Department.
