Summary
Mayor Eric Overholser proclaimed April 12–17, 2026 as Student Artist Week; Natalie Worthy (Miss Greater Vancouver 2026) accepted and encouraged residents to attend the Battle Ground Student Art Walk April 13–17 on Main Street, including a people's-choice vote.
Battle Ground — Mayor Eric Overholser proclaimed April 12–17, 2026 as Student Artist Week in Battle Ground. Natalie Worthy, Miss Greater Vancouver 2026, accepted the proclamation and described outreach efforts in schools and a community event she organized: the Battle Ground Student Art Walk on Main Street (April 13–17), where businesses will display K–12 student art and the public may vote for a people’s-choice prize sponsored by Battle Ground Cinema.
Why it matters: The proclamation is ceremonial but signals city support for K–12 arts education and community partnerships. Worthy said her nonprofit, Amplify the Arts, coordinated the art walk and encouraged families to participate.
Details: The art walk runs April 13–17 on Main Street; the people’s-choice winner receives a sponsor prize package. The city noted proclamations are for recognition and do not establish policy.
Next steps: The city will share event details on its website and social media and invited council and residents to attend.
