Lane League Student Art Competition

The League for Innovation Student Art Competition began in 1987 to provide a means to showcase a selection of the best works being created by community college students. The student art competition is hosted on a rotating basis by each of the League Board Colleges. Lane last hosted the League Student Art Competition for the 2014-15 school year. Art faculty Jennifer Salzman is the current art competition coordinator at Lane.

Lane students have submitted work in each competition and have been the recipient of numerous awards. Lane student, Joslyn Jones, won first place in the 2014-15 League National Art Competition. Read more about her submission in this press release.
