Historical Coventry: A Celebration in Art!

In celebration of "Rhode Island 250," the 250th anniversary of the signing of the nation's Declaration of Independence, Coventry is holding a town-wide student art contest for grades Kindergarten - 12th grade, culminating in an art reception extravaganza!

Winners will receive gift cards, trophies, and medals!  Art submissions will be displayed, and a panel of jurors will choose a first, second, and third prize winner for each category.
