“Tonight, Vernon High School hosted its first annual Art and Literature Gallery Night at VHS in the auditorium. This event was sponsored by Vernon High School’s newly-founded Poetry And Art Club and featured student work across a variety of art forms, mainly poetry and visual art. The presenters were: Gabrielle Stanaland, who read two original poems; Tamia Potter (visual art), Kyle Johnson (poetry and art); Zephene Stephens (visual art); Ta’Liyah Brown (visual art); Xavier Brannon (visual art); and Emily Tice (visual art). Special thanks to the parents and guardians who showed up to support their students tonight. And a very special thanks to our school and district leadership: Mrs. Ellen Grainger, VHS principal; Mr. Joe Taylor, Washington County School superintendent; and Mrs. Cindy Johnson-Brown and Dr. Lou Cleveland, our school board members. Thank you all for a tremendous, inspiration-filled night!!!”
