Several University of Nashville art students submitted work for the 2019 Law Day Essay and Art contest sponsored by the Nashville Bar Association. Open to students in the Nashville area in grades 9-12, the contest asked students to creatively express their ideas about living in a society that is governed by the rule of law. This year’s theme was "Free Speech, Free Press, Free Society.” Talented USN student-artists swept the awards.
Congratulations to Chloe Bruce ’22, Sam Briley ’21, and Neil Narayanan ’21, who earned awarded first, second, and third place, respectively. They were invited to the annual Nashville Bar Association luncheon to receive recognition for their work.
During a fun cross-division collaboration, students in Third Grade Teacher Cala Millis' class visited HS Art Teacher Chris Cheney's class to learn about printmaking and the inner workings of a USN art studio.
Students were treated to a visit from Maria Zoccola, our 2025-2026 Author in Residence. Zoccola is a bestselling poet whose most recent collection is "Helen of Troy,1993."
