And The Cover Winner Is…
A newcomer to the Art League of Long Island’s Summer Portfolio Development program, Alexis Barber, 15, is beginning her sophomore year at East Islip High School. Barber had the distinction of winning third place in an exhibit at the Long Island Children’s Museum when she was in the eighth grade. She plans to sacrifice lunch time to take two honors art classes in the upcoming school year and is enjoying the journey as she searches for her calling in the arts.
Anton Media Group selected Barber’s entry “Notebook” as the Aug. 30 Back To School special section cover winner.
