The museum hosts several exhibitions per year in the George Jenkins Gallery that feature artwork by Polk County School District students. From each of these exhibitions, one piece is purchased by the Museum to be added to our Student Collection.

This exhibition is organized in collaboration with the Exceptional Student Education (ESE) of Polk County Schools, whose mission is to provide support for students of various disabilities as well as gifted learners.
