Last night the Ivins City Council honored the five winners of the Vista School art contest held last month for Eva Lorentzen’s 6th through 8th grade students. The contest, sponsored by the Ivins Night Sky Initiative, challenged students to paint their interpretation of the night sky over Ivins. The contest was professionally judged by Steven Stradley, the Visual Arts Instructor at Tuacahn High School.
Mayor Hart asked the students to tell the Council and audience what inspired them to create the art they did for the contest.
Shown here, from left to right, are Faith Olson, the second place winner, Juniper McCowan, the first place winner, and their teacher, Eva Lorentzen.

The other winners were Acelin Smith, 3rd place; with merit awards to Orion Hansen and Emmalani Gent. Their paintings are currently on display at City Hall.
