BRAD HORN/Nevada Appeal Virginia City High School sophomore Sierra Fielding, 15, discusses one of her pieces at the Comstock Historic Museum in Virginia City.
Virginia City High School art students recently completed works on the impacts and losses due to drug and alcohol abuse. The project, titled "Community Awareness," was sponsored by a Virginia City resident who wanted the students to use art as a way to bring about awareness.
Each student produced two pieces, one about the perils of drug use and a companion piece focused on what is lost because of drug use. The works will be on display at the Comstock History Museum through the month of June.
