The activity center at Wakefield High School was transformed into a vibrant gallery of creativity
on Tuesday, March 19th as students proudly showcased their artistic masterpieces at the
annual Wakefield Art Club BIG Show. From captivating paintings to intricate sculptures, the
event is a testament to the diverse talents and boundless imagination of the various schools’
budding artists. Students from Allen, Bloomfield, Clarkson, Crofton, Homer, Howells-Dodge,
Osmond, Pender, Ponca, Stanton, Wausa, Wakefield, Wynot, and Sargent Bluff-Lutton had
artwork on display.
Among the highlights from the show were the works of Anna Kahny who was named as
Outstanding School Artist for Osmond Community Schools by a vote of her peers. Kahny’s work
demonstrates technical skill, creativity, and passion for artistic expression; as well as reflects the
hours of dedication and artistic exploration that she spends creating art even beyond the walls
of the school.
Other students from Osmond who received Judge’s Merits on their work included Erica Heiman,
Xander Brown, Hunter Buchanan, Owen Severson, Baylen Guenther, Matthew Alderson,
Caydence Krienert, Cody Gansebom, and Nico Morlans.
Junior High students receiving Superior honors included Ella Klein, Korrine Moes, Adyson Poellot,
and Easton Steinkraus.
So as the curtains draw to a close on another successful High School Art Show, we would like
to remind the community to take time to reflect on the power of art to inspire, connect, and
transform lives. Through their creative endeavors, these students have not only showcased their
talent but also left an indelible mark on the hearts and minds of all who have had the privilege of
experiencing their artwork.
