WPS Student Claims Award in this Year’s Shirley Hall Youth Art Show
Berlin, MD – Congratulations to Shirley Hall Youth Art Exhibit awardee, Worcester Preparatory School (WPS) 6th grade student, Emma Mealy.
The Shirley Hall Youth Art Exhibit was held on March 1st at the Art League of Ocean City. WPS 6th grader Emma Mealy of Selbyville, Delaware placed third in the middle school category for her acrylic painting entitled “May Reflections.”
For over 30 years, the Art League of Ocean City has featured artwork by Worcester County middle and high school students in the annual Shirley Hall Youth Art Show. Originally sponsored by the Women’s Club of Ocean City, the show was coordinated by Shirley Hall who was an active member of the OC Women’s Club and former Art League president. When the OC Women’s Club disbanded, the Art League continued to coordinate the yearly youth show as it was central to the organization’s mission. When Shirley passed away in 2006, the Art League renamed the show in her honor.
