SUMMARY:Youth Exhibitions Reception: Floyd Co. High School\, Blue Mountain School\, & Teen Photography
DESCRIPTION:Each year\, the Floyd Center for the Arts presents its Annual Youth Exhibitions\, celebrating the creativity of young artists in the region while recognizing the educators and schools that support arts education. This year’s exhibitions are now on view in three galleries\, with an opening reception scheduled for Friday\, January 16\, from 4:00 to 6:00 PM. The reception is free and open to the public. \nIn the Hayloft Gallery\, Floyd County High School’s Annual Art Exhibition features more than 200 works created by over 100 students under the instruction of art teachers Aven Tanner and Sara Thompson. The exhibition includes painting\, drawing\, sculpture\, mixed media\, and clay works. As part of the annual exhibition experience\, students also participated in curating and installing the show\, gaining hands-on exposure to professional exhibition practices in partnership with the Floyd Center for the Arts Gallery Committee. \nThe Falcon Gallery presents the Blue Mountain School Art Show\, an annual exhibition showcasing student work developed through process-based learning and creative exploration. Under the guidance of Lore Deighan\, a Floyd County native\, students spent the past two months experimenting with color\, materials\, and expressive techniques. This marks Blue Mountain School’s third consecutive year participating in the Center’s annual youth exhibitions. \nConcluding the exhibitions in the Breezeway Gallery is What Strikes My Fancy\, a solo photography exhibition by Jonathan Morisco\, an award-winning teen photographer and published artist. Morisco began taking photographs at the age of four and has since earned numerous awards at the Floyd County Fair\, including the 2025 Grand Prize. His work has also been published\, and the exhibition features photographs created across several years\, including images made when he was just six years old. Together\, the photographs offer a compelling look at his artistic growth\, technical skill\, and long-standing curiosity about the world around him. \nThe Annual Youth Exhibitions will remain on view through January 24\, 2026. The opening reception on January 16 offers the community an opportunity to experience all three exhibitions in one visit\, celebrate the achievements of young artists\, and recognize the teachers and schools that nurture creative learning. Complimentary food and refreshments will be provided. \nProudly sponsored by Finn Graphics.

SUMMARY:Meet the Author: Libby McNamee\, author of Susanna's Midnight Ride - POSTPONED
DESCRIPTION:*This event has been postponed due to the winter storm.* \nWe’ve all heard of Paul Revere\, but have you heard of Susanna Bolling? Susanna’s Midnight Ride is a historical novel for young people based on the true story of a 16-year-old girl from Virginia who saved French General Lafayette from capture\, paving the way for the decisive Battle of Yorktown. Join author Libby McNamee to ride along with Susanna as she makes history. \nAlmost five years after the signing of the Declaration of Independence\, the American Revolution hung in the balance. In late May 1781\, General Cornwallis invaded City Point\, VA\, and quartered his army there. As 16-year-old Susanna Bolling served the British general and his officers dinner\, she overheard their plans to capture General Lafayette and crush the American rebellion once and for all. Under the cover of darkness\, she snuck out of her house through a secret underground tunnel and canoed downriver. Then she grabbed a neighbor’s horse and rode ten miles to warn Lafayette. But would she make it back home by sunrise without detection? \nPresented in partnership with Historic Smithfield. A Montgomery County 250 and Virginia 250 Event.
