A Celebration of South Carolina’s
Exceptional Student Artists

The Picasso Project is an annual statewide student arts competition featuring artwork from the finest and most promising student artists across the state. Students in every school district of the state and at South Carolina’s institutes of higher education are invited to submit two-dimensional art projects, which are juried in six regional competitions and then exhibited in eight regional shows. Following the regional shows, those regional winning pieces of artwork are displayed and auctioned at The Picasso Project Gala and Auction on Friday, April 25th.

The Picasso Project serves three purposes:

• to highlight the talents of South Carolina students
• to provide an avenue to teach students the value of philanthropy
• to raise funds to benefit The Children’s Trust Fund of South Carolina/Prevent Child Abuse South Carolina/Voices for South Carolina’s Children
