Current Exhibitions

The Long Beach Museum of Art’s annual juried high school exhibition invites Long Beach Unified School District (LBUSD) art students to submit their works pertaining to a theme.

This year, students were asked to consider how art is used to share new perspectives, challenge the status quo, speak out against injustices, and inspire others to take action. From women’s rights to environmental activism and racial justice, the breadth of these students’ calls for change underlines this generation’s collective pursuit of an equitable future.
