The City of Columbia Office of Cultural Affairs (OCA) celebrates the work of all Columbia Public Schools student artists!

CPS Art Teachers have the opportunity to be matched with downtown District Businesses for a partnership project, PIE Art Windows.

In addition to displaying CPS student artwork in the windows of downtown businesses, City of Columbia OCA creates a virtual gallery to showcase student artwork virtually in partnership with Columbia Public Schools Fine Arts Department.  The City's Office of Cultural Affairs judges our students’ artwork online and downtown during PIE Week in The District to select a first place artist. The winning school receives a $1,000 honorarium for support of the classroom art supplies and a chance to have the 1^st place student’s art design published.
