Sturgeon Bay High School Students Win Art in the Schools Project

The sail that Sturgeon Bay High School seniors Quincy Gibson and Ellie Johnson painted received the most votes from attendees at Nicolet Bank Tall Ships, held July 26-28 in Green Bay. By receiving the most votes, the school’s art program received a $1,000 scholarship from the PMI Entertainment Group Foundation.

In February, eight northeastern Wisconsin high schools – Algoma, Ashwaubenon, Bay Port, Green Bay West, John Dewey Academy of Learning, Notre Dame, Oneida Nation and Sturgeon Bay – received a sail donated by Dorsal Sail and Canvas of Sturgeon Bay, and the students were given artistic freedom to create whatever inspired them. The sails were displayed at Nicolet Bank Tall Ships, where attendees voted for their favorite.
