Subseries V: Scholastic Art Shows, 1979-1988, is sorted chronologically. This subseries contains the materials for the various regional scholastic art shows held by Wilkes that featured local high school students, and for the sake of convenience, they have been included together in their own series. Materials include internal and external correspondence and memoranda, financial documents, condition reports, loan documents, photographs, catalogs, marketing materials, PR materials including newspaper articles, and event programs. Because of the sensitive nature of these materials, they are restricted.
