The University of Guam Isla Center for the Arts presents the 27th Annual Isla Art-a-thon Exhibition, “Traditions and Memories Across Generations,” showcasing selected artwork created by Guam’s public school students.

The exhibition features 67 works chosen from more than 383 students representing 20 Guam Department of Education schools who participated in the 2025–2026 Isla Art-a-thon. Students from elementary, middle, and high schools explored a variety of media, including recycled materials, crayons, pastels, colored pencils, ink, collage, mixed media, markers, watercolor, air-dry clay, and printmaking.

The Isla Art-a-thon is both a celebration of creativity and a fundraiser supporting arts education in local schools. This year’s event raised over $10,200 for participating schools to strengthen their art programs.
