Huntington Chi Chapter of Tri Kappa announced that it chose Isabel Niswander as the recipient of their Fine Arts Award for 2022. The piece was chosen from a selection of best works at Huntington North High School that included drawings, paintings, graphic design and 3-D Art. This award is given to one local high school student per year.

Niswander’s art piece, a tryptic of koi fish drawings titled Serenity, was completed as part of a Drawing IV course at Huntington North High School. The artwork has been professionally framed and will hang in a prominent location near the mayor’s office on the third floor of the Huntington City Building, located at 300 Cherry Street, Huntington.

The art will be on display for the next year. Niswander is a graduating senior at Huntington North High School. She will attend Purdue Fort Wayne in the fall and is considering a future in either criminal law, philosophy or fine arts.

Tri Kappa is a philanthropic organization founded in Indiana in 1901 to support Charity, Culture & Education. Huntington Chi Chapter has supported Huntington County since 1906.
