On March 31, 13 students’ art works were accepted into the 2012 Texas Visual Arts Association High School Art Competition at the University of Texas at Dallas. There were more than 1,000 entries from the DFW Metroplex. Only 100 works are accepted into the show and Legacy represents 16 of those. The awards show is April 22 from 3:30-4 p.m. Once accepted into the show, these students are eligible to win scholarships and cash prizes up to $600.
