Also, every year artists from the West Suburban Artists Guild view the Triton College
High School Art Competition and choose seven pieces they feel deserve special
recognition. They feel it is important to recognize the talent of these students and
encourage their future pursuits in the arts.
I am very pleased to announce that Victoria Kospin’s painting, “Self-Portrait DaVinci
Style” was one of the seven chosen! Victoria will be recognized during the awards
ceremony at 7pm at the Triton public reception.
Triton College will be hosting a public reception for the students, their families, schools
and the community on Wednesday, February 11, 2015. The reception will take place
from 6:00pm to 8:30pm in the gallery of the Triton Fine Arts Building (J), located at
Triton College, 2000 Fifth Ave., River Grove, IL 60171.
