The Art Educators of New Jersey (AENJ) proudly celebrates Youth Art Month 2025 with the theme Healing through Color,
highlighting the creativity and talent of student artists across the state.
Youth Art Month started with a highly competitive statewide contest to design a flag to represent New Jersey at the
National Art Educators Association Convention in Tennessee. The winning design was created by a Mercer County
student! The current AENJ Mercer County student art exhibition, hosted by ARTWORKS of Trenton, showcases over 120
remarkable artwork from students throughout Mercer County in grades K- 12. The exhibition provided a platform for
young artists to share their visions and interpretations with a wider audience.
Youth Art Month 2025 is a testament to the dedication of New Jersey’s art educators and the incredible talent of their
students. AENJ remains committed to providing opportunities for young artists to grow and create, while Healing
through color.
