Coronado Students Shine at Art Exhibition “Centered”
Located in the beautiful city of Coronado, the Coronado School of the Arts (CoSA) is buzzing with excitement as it prepares to unveil its latest student art exhibition, titled “Centered.” Scheduled for Tuesday, April 29, from 5:30 PM to 7 PM, this event promises to be an inspiring evening filled with creativity and talent. The exhibition will take place at the C3 Gallery, situated at 1845 Strand Way.
A Showcase to Remember

Growth and Creativity
The event is not just a display of art; it’s a celebration of growth. This year’s senior class has demonstrated remarkable evolution in their technical skills, particularly in portraiture. The CoSA Visual Arts program has seen an increase in interest this year, leading to an exciting expansion that has ended a waitlist that had been in place for over ten years. This is great news for budding artists, as the program strives to cultivate creativity and provide more students the chance to explore their artistic interests.
An Evening of Community and Connection
The opening reception will take place in the Nautilus Room, where attendees can mingle, engage with the art, and enjoy refreshments while soaking up the creative atmosphere. Best of all, the event is free and open to the public, allowing everyone in the community to witness the raw talent and passion on display. It’s a great opportunity to support young artists and show appreciation for their hard work.
Spotlight on Student Artists
Among the talented students is graduating senior Ben Byars, who shares a passion for portrait art. He expresses his intent to continue exploring the stylistic landscape of portraits beyond graduation. The personal connection artists have with their work is one of the vital elements that enrich the exhibition experience.
An Invitation to Experience Art
So, mark your calendars and prepare for an evening that aims to inspire both art aficionados and newcomers to the art scene. Come see the impressive artistic growth of these young talents, celebrate their achievements, and immerse yourself in the world of creativity that the Coronado School of the Arts nurtures. The exhibition “Centered” is more than an art display—it’s a journey through individual expression, an encouragement to dream bigger, and a community coming together to appreciate the younger generation’s talent!
