BACKGROUND: The George Washington University Virginia Campus is proud to present “Discover Loudoun’s Young Artists,” a partnership program showcasing works by students from Loudoun County Public Schools. The goal for Loudoun County Public Schools Visual Arts Program is to connect the student/creator to the power of the visual image and create a link between the arts of the past and present. In grades one through 12, basic learning goals have been set that strive to address the students’ sequential development through art in relation to their creative expression and appreciation of art. The George Washington University Virginia Campus in Loudoun County is the region’s fastest-growing research and technology campus with academic and research initiatives in transportation safety and security, public health and homeland security, professional and executive education, and information technology and telecommunications. The 13-year old, 95-acre campus is located in Ashburn, Virginia, in the technology and business corridor near Dulles International Airport.
