Lynnfield Art Guild Awards its 2026 Art Scholarships to LHS Seniors Ereeny Georges and Jerusha Robins

The Lynnfield Art Guild (LAG) is proud to announce that the two Lynnfield High School 2026 winners of its art-based scholarships are Ereeny Georges and Jerusha Robins.

Ereeny Georges is the recipient of the Karen Rae Simpson Duggan Memorial Award for $1000 which honors a graduating senior interested in fine arts, graphic arts or computer design who plans to keep art in her life. Ereeny says: “I have been painting and drawing since I was born and was first taught by my grandmother. Mechanical engineering is a specialty that I am interested in that can allow imaginative problem solving and creative thinking, all which I have learned throughout my art classes at Lynnfield High. I look forward to continuing my art and creative expression at college.”

Jerusha Robins is the award winner for the Marjorie Gershaw $1000 Scholarship which was fostered by Marjorie’s love of and commitment to art and understanding that art is a passport to creativity. Jerusha says, “I was moved by Marjorie Gershaw’s belief that art is a passport to one’s creative life. That sentiment deeply resonates with me and reflects the role that art has played in my own life. Through my AP Art sustained investigation, I explored my grandfather’s Alzheimer’s disease using surrealism to express the emotional and physical toll of memory loss. Through both my service and my creative work, I have come to see art as a bridge between people, stories, and meaningful change. As I look ahead, I am especially interested in combining art and medicine in meaningful ways.”

The Guild also offers Lynnfield high school students the chance to participate in the Fall and Judged Spring Shows. Membership in the Lynnfield Art Guild, a nonprofit organization, is open to artisans, photographers, and artists of all levels, with student, supporting and family memberships also available.
