Maury County Government Reveals Courthouse Art Contest Winners

To commemorate the 120th anniversary of the Maury County Courthouse, the Maury County government received an Arts Build Communities (ABC) grant from the Tennessee Arts Commission. This grant financed a juried art competition centered around the courthouse, which was constructed in 1904 under the supervision of local architect J.E.R. Carpenter, a nationally recognized figure in the field.

Over 40 art pieces were submitted for the competition, evaluated by a panel of four judges: photographers Sarah Gilliam and Ross Jaynes, sculptor Jennifer Grisham, and painter/sculptor James Spearman. The winners were chosen across four categories: elementary, middle school, high school, and adult, with a grand prize awarded to the overall best submission.

Despite the absence of high school entries, winners were selected from the other categories. The results are as follows:

Elementary
3^rd Place: Baleigh Fowler
2^nd Place: Emma Waltman
1^st Place: Arlo Schminke

Middle School
3^rd Kendall Atwater
2^nd Hadley Tracey
1^st Ali Nicholson

Adult                                                             
3^rd Place: Ashley Barnett
2nd Place: Mary Lehner
1^st Place: David Brady

Grand Prize Winner
Randy Walters

All the artwork submitted for the competition will be on display at the Pryor Art Gallery at Columbia State Community College from May 13 to June 14. The exhibition will open with a gallery reception on May 13 at 4 p.m.

The grant for this event was provided by the Tennessee Arts Commission and the SouthCentral Tennessee Development District, with additional support from the Maury County Visitor's Bureau, Columbia State Community College, and the Maury County Finance Department.
