SUMMARY:5th Annual Beaufort County High School Regional Art Exhibition

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.

SUMMARY:Time Collage - Layers of Life - Debi West
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:Bird Fruit Feeders - Hand Building
DESCRIPTION:Bird Fruit Feeders – Hand Building \nWho: Ages 14 through Adults \nWhen: Wednesday mornings – 10:00 am – 12:00 pm \nStarts: Mar. 25\, Apr. 22\, or May 13\, 2026… only 1 day! \nHow Long: 2-hour class – single-day session \nWhere: Hilton Head Pottery Studio \nCost: $75 per session (includes all materials: clay\, glazes\, and firing costs) \n  \nWith spring weather arriving\, it’s time to treat yourself! Let your creativity flow with just one morning out of your schedule! We have the perfect opportunity to try hand-building while creating one spectacular piece—a bird feeder. These are bird feeders with chunks of fruit speared inside to hang. Our one-day class will include an introduction to rolling slabs\, texturing\, sculpting\, and constructing your creation. Your masterpiece will be fired and ready for pickup in a few weeks after the class. \nOur teaching method is hands-on\, and class sizes are intentionally small so we can give individualized attention as needed. This class is fun and low-key—we want you to learn what it takes to make pottery\, but it’s just as important that you enjoy the experience. \n  \nThis Class is limited to 10 participants \n\n\n\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: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
