Orland Township began displaying local student art in December 2010 as a means to showcase the talent within the community, as well as a way to conserve Township funds under Supervisor Paul O’Grady’s direction.
 
"These young artists really show the talent that is growing in Orland Township," O'Grady said. "Orland Township is lucky to have such a vibrant community of artists and we're lucky that we get a chance to showcase these young talents. Everyone should come see these works."
 
The artwork wall will be updated with new arrivals periodically and local schools are encouraged to submit student artwork.
