Our Falcon artists soared at the Creative Mind Art Challenge, earning Top 3 of the 5 winning spots! We are incredibly proud of their talent, focus, and creativity.
🥇 1st Place – Lilia Moore
🥈 2nd Place – Calie Cortez
🥉 3rd Place – Austin Cobos
During the challenge, students were given a prompt and just three hours to create an original work of art—judged on creativity, technique, use of media, and interpretation of the prompt. Our Falcons rose to the challenge in every way!
These Top 3 winners now advance to Round 2, where they will compete against artists from across the region.
Way to go, Falcons! Keep creating, keep dreaming, and keep inspiring! ❤️🖤🦅
