SUMMARY:5th Annual Beaufort County High School Regional Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The Coastal Discovery Museum\, a Smithsonian Affiliate\, will showcase the talents of Beaufort County’s young artists in a new juried exhibition featuring high school student artwork. The exhibition will be on view in the museum’s main gallery from April 1 through May 5. \nAdmission to the museum is free. \nThe 5th annual Beaufort County High School Regional Art Exhibition presents more than 100 works by high school students from public and private schools\, including Beaufort High School\, Bluffton High School\, Bridges Preparatory School\, Cross Schools\, Hilton Head Island High School\, Hilton Head Preparatory School\, May River High School\, and Heritage Academy. \n“Walking through the exhibition\, you see how our high school students are experimenting and expressing themselves through art\,” said Elizabeth Greenberg\, Director of Exhibitions. “Across painting\, photography\, ceramics\, mixed media\, and digital art\, it’s a reflection of the value of arts education to inspire creativity and innovation.” \nElliot Pearson\, a 9th grader at Hilton Head Island High School\, designed the postcard image for this year’s exhibition. \nThe juror for this year’s competition is Jessie Peterson Tarazi\, a contemporary painter from Hilton Head Island\, and alumna of the South Carolina Governor’s School for the Arts and Humanities. She earned her MFA from the New York Academy of Art and has studied with leading contemporary painters including Jenny Saville and Vincent Desiderio. \n“As someone who was raised in this community and has built a career as a professional artist\, it’s especially meaningful to see the museum’s continued commitment to supporting emerging talent\,” said Tarazi. “The students demonstrated an impressive level of creativity\, technical skill\, and individuality—the depth of talent on display is truly inspiring.” \nMuseum hours are Monday through Saturday\, 9am – 4:30pm and Sunday\, 11am-4:30pm \n

SUMMARY:Time Collage - Layers of Life - Debi
DESCRIPTION:Layers of Life: \nArtwork by Debi West \nLocal artist and longtime art educator Debi West brings Layers of Life to the Art League Gallery this April. Showcasing more than forty years of creative exploration\, the exhibition revisits and transforms works from her personal archive\, turning past canvases\, photographs\, and surfaces into renewed expressions. Emphasizing curiosity\, reflection\, and the evolving nature of art\, Layers of Life encourages viewers to engage with each piece as part of a living process where meaning grows and shifts over time. \n“Layers of Life is a conversation between who I was\, who I am\, and who I am still becoming. It is both a personal archive and a shared experience\,” says West. “Rather than leaving earlier pieces behind\, I return to them—recycling\, reworking\, and reimagining them—so that nothing is erased and each layer carries traces of what came before\, reflecting how meaning accumulates through experience\, reflection\, and time.” \nWith more than four decades in the visual arts\, West has built a career shaped by both studio practice and art education. She spent 25 years teaching in Gwinnett County\, Georgia—including 10 years as Fine Arts Department Chair at North Gwinnett High School—before transitioning into educational consulting and graduate instruction\, where she continues to mentor educators through her writing and teaching. \nA nationally recognized artist and retired art educator\, West has exhibited her work nationwide. She was named National Elementary Art Educator\, National Southeastern Secondary Art Educator\, and Distinguished Fellow of the National Art Education Association\, and has authored more than 200 articles and several books. \nWith Layers of Life\, West invites visitors to engage directly with the work. “As an art educator\, I have always believed that art is most powerful when it invites participation\,” she says. “Visitors are invited to contribute images\, marks\, and ideas\, collectively building a piece that will shift and metamorphosize throughout the course of the exhibition.” \n

SUMMARY:Hairspray: The Broadway Musical
DESCRIPTION:You Can’t Stop the Beat! \nIn 1962 Baltimore\, Maryland\, quirky teen Tracy Turnblad’s dream is to dance on The Corny Collins Show\, a local TV dance program based on the real-life Buddy Deane Show. \n​Overnight\, Tracy transforms from a nobody into a star\, and uses her newfound influence to advocate for racial integration on the show. Tracy faces scrutiny and bullying from the network producer\, Velma\, and her popular yet vicious\, daughter Amber. With the help of the teenage heartthrob Link\, host Corny Collins\, and Motormouth Maybelle\, Tracy strives to overcome the odds to integrate The Corny Collins Show. The Tony Award-winning Hairspray continues to be a crowd-pleasing favorite\, not only because of its wit and charm\, but also because of the beautiful message of acceptance and progress that it portrays. The bright\, energetic story of Tracy Turnblad teaches us all to look past the color of one’s skin and fight for every human being’s equal rights. \n  \nDirected by David Grindrod \nhttps://ci.ovationtix.com/35023/production/1265861
