Youth in Arts is celebrating its 31st annual RISING STARS show featuring the best high school artists from across Marin County.

The showcase runs March 27 through May 13. It features 130 drawings, paintings, photographs, sculptures, mixed media, and digital artworks from emerging artists. The art is on display at the YIA Gallery at 917 C St. in San Rafael weekdays from 11 am to 4 pm. Admission is free.

Visual art teachers from public, private and alternative high schools nominated their top students for the juried show.

The exhibition was blindly adjudicated by: interdisciplinary artist Sirima Sataman, painter and Associate Professor of Art Lynn Sondag (Dominican University), and photographer Stephen Texeira. Sponsors include College of Marin, Dominican University of California, RileyStreet Art Supply, Rocky Nook Inc, and Sarah Shepard Gallery.

Participants include The Branson School, Compass Academy, Marin Academy, Marin Catholic High School, Marin School of the Arts, Novato High School, Redwood High School, San Domenico School, San Rafael High School, Tamalpais High School, Tamiscal High School, Terra Linda High School and Tomales High School.

Artist Susan Diglioni founded RISING STARS in 1991, believing that young artists should be recognized for their talents.
