Gallery of Student Art

At the beginning of the school year the Edmund Rice Christian Brothers Art Foundation invited these Edmund Rice Schools to prepare for the edition of the Gallery of Student Art.

The project offers an opportunity to highlight the creativity of the students of each school offering national and international acclaim at the Annual Meeting of School Leaders and then throughout the year at the Edmund Rice Schools On-Line Student Art Gallery.

The art and music of the students offer vibrant expressions of dynamism and creativity, breaking open beauty in diversity, hope in adversity, and an ever-fresh perspective on our evolving humanity.
