A pair of Lehman High School Art Department students earned national awards for their photography skills. (Above) Marisa Tambur and Daniel Chambless have been named National Gold and Silver medalists, respectively, in the 2018 Scholastic Arts and Writing Awards competition. Both Marisa and Daniel competed in the contest’s Photography category. The competition is sponsored by the Alliance of Young Artists and Writers, with the mission of identifying “students with exceptional artistic and literary talent and presenting their remarkable work to the world through the awards.” As a National Gold medalist, Marisa receives an invitation to attend a national recognition ceremony at New York City’s famous Carnegie Hall later this spring.
Meanwhile, Lehman High sophomore Kalei Engleman (below) won 8th place for entries placed into the 2018 Rodeo Austin Youth Art Show. Engleman’s entry claimed a $550 bid during a silent auction.
