From May 1-5, Kent Denver will celebrate the arts at our second annual Arts Week! Events will feature student artists and musicians as we spotlight the creativity and depth of Kent Denver's 6–12 arts program.

Visual Art Exhibit | Student Center for the Arts Lobby

Kent Denver's Middle and Upper School visual arts classes have collected some of their best work from the 2022–23 school year for this comprehensive exhibit. The exhibit will be available for viewing during the entire duration of Arts Week.

This show also provides an opportunity for work to be included in Kent Denver's Permanent Art Collection. An outside juror will review the exhibit and recommend individual pieces that will be added to the collection for five years.
