Local elementary students' artwork featured in Times Square

CINCINNATI - The artwork of two local students is part of an exhibit on the big screen in New York's Times Square. 

The creations of Jeremy Simmons of Fort Wright, Ky. and Madison Coyle of Batavia, Ohio have been selected to be part of  "Big Screen Plaza,"  a 500 piece electronic billboard project during the National Art Education conference in New York City, March 2-3.

Jeremy is a third grader at White's Tower Elementary. Madison is in second grade at Batavia Elementary.  Their art teachers nominated the children's artwork for inclusion.
