West Boylston once again makes the Central Mass. Youth Art Month Exhibit happen!
Mrs. Pelto, Mrs. Tetler and our NAHS crew of Kyle, Corey, Alanna, Shannon, Amy, and Sarah worked to help organize and hang the entries in to the Central Mass. Youth Art Month exhibit. Some of the veteran crew members even had the foresight to bring hammers to avoid "push pin thumbs." Job well done and thanks to Alanna for her home made vegan cookies - enjoyed by all.

The West Boylston Arts Foundation has established the Emily & Leo Boosahda Visual Arts Scholarship to honor the lifelong commitment, love, and passion for art that infused the lives of Emily and Leo Boosahda. Mrs. Boosahda touched the lives of countless students as an art teacher in the West Boylston schools for over 20 years. She also conducted numerous workshops, exhibitions, and classes in her studio for West Boylston residents of all ages. Her husband, Leo, not only supported Emily’s work, but was involved in art festivals and community events throughout his life. The scholarship will continue Mr. & Mrs. Boosahda’s legacy by assisting students from West Boylston that plan on continuing their education in the visual arts.
The West Boylston Arts Foundation will award one $500 scholarship to a new student each year. To qualify, a student must be accepted as a visual art major at an accredited college, university, or art school. Visual arts may include drawing/illustration, painting, sculpture, and graphic design.
