The exhibit features over 400 pieces of both two and three dimensional student artwork representing every school in the district from grades K-12. The title, NO BOUNDARIES refers to the exhibit’s goal of showcasing artwork without size or media limitations, and also exemplifies the unlimited creative potential of the students in the district.

There will a special opening reception Friday, May 14th from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m., featuring live jazz, band, and choral music performances by PUSD students. From opening night through the month of May, PUSD student artwork will also be included in The Projections Project.

Select student artists exhibiting in NO BOUNDARIES will be chosen to receive scholarships to attend programs at the Armory Center for the Arts and the Art Center College of Design.
