The Helena Education Foundation is thrilled to announce the inaugural year of the Going to the Sun Award, providing up to four $350 awards to be given annually to HPS high school student visual artists by the Helena Education Foundation beginning in 2025. The Going to the Sun Award was established by a local family of longtime advocates/supporters of Helena Public Schools and the Helena Education Foundation.
Professional artists in the community will review submissions and select the winning pieces. The artwork of the Going to the Sun Award recipients will be featured in the annual Pen & Ink magazine, as well as at the community launch party for the magazine, hosted by HEF to honor the student editors, writers, and artists.
