Congratulations to all students, teachers, and schools who participated in this year’s Juried Exhibition of Student Art (JESA). The Juried Exhibition of Student Art is the education program which officially “kicks off ” the activities of the quadrennial International Violin Competition of Indianapolis (IVCI). You are part of a tradition of excellence which began in 1986.

To celebrate the 11th Quadrennial, more than 21,000 students in grades 1 through 12 and 151 teachers from 57 counties across the state took part in this exciting multi-disciplinary program designed to integrate the disciplines of the performing, literary and visual arts.
