Student Artists Bring Earth Day Messages to Life on the Sphere

From Paint to Pixel
A new type of canvas has been unveiled for the artists, and it’s not just any canvas – it’s the Sphere. On Tuesday, six high school students from Clark County School District and two students from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) won a competition to have their Earth Day-themed artwork displayed on the Sphere. The winning students, including Miguel Diaz from Liberty High School, will have their artwork displayed on the Sphere, and they will also receive a share of $10,000 to support their schools’ art programs.

  • Miguel Diaz, a senior from Liberty High School, was inspired by his culture and the diversity of the area to create his artwork.
  • Leena Luu, a fifth-grade winner from Rogers Elementary School, worked on her art piece for two weeks and was joined by a group of friends and staff from her school, who brought signs and created a cheer for her.
  • Art teacher Amy Cardinali said the $10,000 was a dream come true for her and will allow her to better fund an art gallery at the school and the art club.

The Students’ Journey
The annual competition has been a huge success, with over 100,000 local students submitting their artwork, and more than a quarter of a million designs were chosen based on votes around the world. The competition was held over a three-week period in March, and the students had to submit their artwork online.
