The show, featuring the work of high school students from across Western New York, offers a free public reception from 2 to 5 p.m. at the Kenan Center House Gallery, 433 Locust St., where awards will be presented at 3 p.m. Regular gallery hours are 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. Monday-Friday, and 2 - 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. The exhibit continues through May 1.

Twenty-five schools are participating in this year’s show. They are: Akron, Amherst, C.W.

In addition, one student from each school is recognized with a merit award.

The exhibit is named in honor of Lockport artist, William Storrs, who passed away in 2005. An accomplished artist and long-time contributor to visual arts programming at the Kenan Center, Storrs was instrumental in starting the All High Photo Show which was designed to showcase the photographic work of high school students throughout Western New York, and was an active participant in the installation of the works as well as the awards presentation.

Juror for this year’s exhibit is Lockport photographer Dennis Stierer, retired staff photojournalist from the Lockport Journal and past president of the Buffalo Society of Artists.
