The Fifth Annual Emerging Artist Show for youth from kindergarten through high school will be held on September 7 & 8, 2013 in conjunction with the Rio Costilla Studio Tour.

• Kindergarten through 3^rd grade
• 4^th through 6^th grade
• 7^th and 8^th grade
• High School, 9^th through 12^th grade

There will also be a People’s Choice Award given to the artist whose art work gets the most votes from individuals attending the studio tour.
