Maggie Britt '23 Wins Chelsea Garvin Spirit Award Scholarship

As a recipient of the award, Maggie earned a $1,000 scholarship from the Original Oyster House.

 

The 18^th Annual Chelsea Garvin Spirit Award Scholarship competition was open to high school seniors in Baldwin County with a 2.5 minimum GPA who have participated in a recent school or community art event. The students had to submit artwork that reflects the Original Oyster House brand in some way and could be displayed at the restaurant.

 

Maggie is the fifth-generation female in her family to live on the shores of Mobile Bay, and her painting is evocative of time spent with her grandmother on the shore of the bay gathering shells and other bay objects to create crafts. Her artwork is a colorful mixed media work that has layers of paint and various papers, some gold, and a think top coat of resin.

 

We are so proud of Maggie for winning this scholarship with her art.
