Faith Daan, a freshman at Chattanooga High School Center for Creative Arts, won the 9-12 grade category of the 2021 ESS Art Contest with a piece titled ‘Young Chaos.”
The contest’s theme, “What would it be like to go to school for superheroes?” drew 850 submissions nationwide across grades K-12. Daan and CCA each received $500 as part of the award.
“The Visual Arts Department is very proud of Faith Daan’s artistic accomplishments this year,” said CCA art teacher Justin Black in a statement. “Faith has been a role model of excellence for her peers during this tumultuous year, and this national recognition speaks to her unwavering pursuit of authentic expression and creative risk-taking.”
