The Rotary Club of Kissimmee West is once again bringing art and philanthropy together with the 9th Annual Virtual Student Art Exhibit, showcasing the creativity of young artists while raising funds for youth education, scholarships, and hunger relief efforts in Osceola County.
The online art exhibit, featuring over 500 juried entries from talented student artists across the county, will run from April 7–14, 2025. Artwork will be displayed virtually on OsceolaGenerations.org, where visitors can review the submissions and vote for their favorite pieces.
Vote & Make a Difference
Participants can support their favorite student artists by casting votes in the People’s Choice Award, with each vote costing $5. 100% of the proceeds from the voting process will go toward funding the winning artists and teachers, as well as local charitable initiatives.
Winners will be selected across various grade levels, with cash prizes awarded:
🎨 People’s Choice Award: $250 for the top-voted student
🎨 Best of Show: $100 for student winners, plus $100 for their teachers to purchase art supplies
Benefiting the Community
Beyond recognizing student talent, the exhibit serves as a fundraiser for essential community programs, including:
✔️ Osceola Meals on Wheels
✔️ Osceola Council on Aging Food Pantries in Kissimmee & St. Cloud
✔️ Youth education, development, and post-secondary scholarships
