WINNETKA – Six art students have been selected to represent New Trier High School at the 2016 Illinois High School Art Exhibition. This show features the best art from 100 Chicago-area public and private schools. Area high schools come together to celebrate the diversity of city and suburban high school artists, unifying the arts through a common goal, experience, and perspective.
