There are some occasions when Fishers City Hall is filled with energy and enthusiasm. Friday evening was such a time as the Fishers Arts Council handed out awards for artwork done by students at HSE and Fishers High Schools.
Students, parents and many others browsed the halls of the city government center with the students’ artwork. This will be the final chance for the Senior Showcase to be featured in this City Hall. The building is facing the wrecking ball later this year, with the newly-constructed combination Arts Center and Municipal Complex projected to be completed by March of 2024.
June of this year will be the last time Fishers Arts Council will sponsor an art display as City Hall, as preparations will begin to exit that structure. The monthly art displays will move to the Hamilton County Community Foundation, located at 11810 Technology Drive.
Several awards were handed out Friday, with Grace Vandiver of HSE High School winning the Best in Show award. Tom Rich handed out the certificates & checks, with Fishers City Council President Todd Zimmerman offering opening remarks.
Below is is listing of all winners:
