This year marks the 38th annual Youth Art Month (YAM) exhibition of student artwork on view
at the Huntsville Museum of Art in the Adtran, Jurenko, Thurber, and Guild Galleries. This
exhibition showcases nearly 200 exuberant works of art by youth in kindergarten through grade
12 from Huntsville City, Madison City, Madison County, Athens City, Limestone County,
Decatur City, and Scottsboro City schools.

The Congressional Art Competition (on view February 23 – 27), and VAA: Visual Arts Achievement Program District V Blue Ribbon Finalists (VAA on view February 23)
exhibitions complement the student artwork this year. The VAA District V award-winning works will be a part of a virtual statewide exhibition with the Alabama State Council on the Arts, along with other regional winners from across the state. The artwork by the winner of the Congressional Art Competition (CAC), selected from high school students in the 5th Congressional District will later travel to Washington, D.C. for a yearlong display at the U.S. Capitol.
