Lila Driver (Luka), a Junior at Arkansas Arts Academy High School was selected to have their drawing Wire and Vine on display in the 2024/2025 OZART: Missouri and Arkansas Young Artist Gallery at WonderWorks in Branson. Selected by a team of judges, the artwork will be featured alongside an extensive art gallery of illusion art, Dr. Seuss’ Taxidermy Art Sculptures, other local artists and more! The exhibit will open on March 1, 2025.
This year’s contest theme is: The Nature of STEM. Luka created the winning art piece in her Drawing II class led by Ms. Schultz, who posted the art competition in her classroom for all of her students to consider. Ms. Shultz states "It was a juried show so getting accepted is a challenge, I encouraged Luka to submit as the art work fit this year's theme so well."
Tim Church, the Sales & Marketing Manager with WonderWorks Branson, confirmed Luka's win stating "we can’t wait to display your artistic talent with all our guests!"
Each fall, local students ages 6 to 20 are invited to submit their masterpieces for a chance to have them displayed in the upside-down house. Guests can come back each year to see the new winning artwork, all falling under a unique new theme. The OZART: Missouri & Arkansas Young Artist Gallery, is located on the second floor of our upside-down WonderWorks attraction in Branson, MO.
