Youth Art Show

There is beauty in youth some say, especially when they are as talented as those chosen to participate in Neptune’s Youth Art Show. On display will be the finest youth art Hampton Roads has to offer. Come enjoy this perspective as you peruse their gallery on 27th-28th Streets.

Open to all young artists, grades 4-12, this event gives them the chance to display and sell their creations in a juried venue. Over 30 awards worth more than $1,000 will be presented to students representing all grade levels. The Best-in-Show Award winner will walk away with a $250 cash award, Neptune Festival Plaque and Ribbon!
