The next Picasso might be right under your nose.

Works by 26 Fort Mill High students will be on display at the Fort Mill High School Auditorium from 6:30 - 8:30 p.m., Wednesday, May 28, during the first Fort Mill High School AP and Senior Arts Show. AP Art Teacher Judi Vokes organized the show, and plans to make it an annual tradition.

"We hang stuff up all the time, but this is our first real art show," Vokes said. "They'll be doing a lot of this as artists."

Vokes took over teaching AP arts when Brenda Stewart, last year's AP arts teacher, moved to Nation Ford High. She wanted to give her students something other than graduation to get excited about at the end of the year.

Along with the 16 AP students, nine seniors who did not take AP art and a sophomore who will be attending the Governor's School for the Arts next year will also show their work. The featured works will include everything from "very tight, illustrative scenes, to the really loose modern art stuff," Vokes said.

The show is free to the public. Some of the works may be for sale.

"It's up to them," Vokes said. "Each one will have an eight-foot by eight-foot square up on the stage where they can put up their own work. They can do what they want with their own booths."

The students also will be recognizing a sculpture created by senior AP student Jordan Younglove, dedicated to the 2008 senior class, the last time all the seniors in the district will be at the same school. Younglove has been working with Lancaster-based artist Bob Doster on the sculpture.

"He came to me at the beginning of the year and said he wanted to do a sculpture to leave behind," Vokes said.

Another AP student, Madison Hengst, is also leaving her mark. She's been painting several murals at Appleseed Child Development Center in Fort Mill, Vokes said.
