The Creative Cove, a student-run art gallery located in front of the Medina High School main office, came alive with color, creativity and the feel of autumn on Monday, Oct. 27, 2025, as the Medina High School Art Club presented the Falling Leaves Fine Arts Showcase.
The Creative Cove was established last year as part of Zoe Dressler and Jay Milewski’s senior capstone project. Members of the Art Club — Leah Andrews, Amy Lin, Charlotte Charbonneau and Katelyn Schreiber — now manage the space under the guidance of advisor Lauren Smith.
The event featured original artwork by Medina High School students, inspired by spooky Halloween themes and cozy autumn vibes. From paintings and photography to sculpture and mixed media, each piece highlighted the imagination and talent of these young artists.
A family and community reception was held from 2:30 to 4 p.m., during which guests enjoyed viewing the artwork, meeting some of the artists and voting for their favorites. Prizes were awarded for first, second and third place, along with a People’s Choice Award.
The showcase is the first exhibition of the school year. Additional shows will be announced at a later date.
