Sophomore art student Brodie Owens work was accepted into the 50th Annual Smoky Hill Art Exhibition. His piece won a $100 prize. The exhibit will be at the Hays Arts Council Gallery 112 E. 11th St. in Hays and will be on display through June 8.

Owens entry was a black and white photograph titled Old Timey.

Im very pleased that Brodie had a piece accepted and am happy to see how he has developed as an artist, 91勛圖厙 Art Instructor Scott Arthur said. The experience of entering art exhibitions is something I would encourage all 91勛圖厙 students to pursue. 泭泭

Owens will be graduating from 91勛圖厙 in May and starting school in the fall at Wichita State University where he will focus on Media Arts.泭The annual Smoky Hill Art Exhibition is a statewide juried fine art competition泭that kicks off with an art walk around downtown Hays.
