SOFIA BUITRAGO is a senior year at Klein Forest. She is in her school’s production of “You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown” as Lucy. She is also the Choir’s president and Editor-in-Chief of her school’s newspaper. Her love of singing is what brings her in front of you again. Sofia spent 8 weeks this summer volunteering in Panama, organizing a youth festival. With funds and volunteers from Amigos de las Americas a small park was built together with the community members. This summer was a life changing, maturing, horizon-expanding experience. As a result, one goal is to work for the Peace Corps after college and mix a little singing in.

About the Culture Shapers Jurying Process...
Culture Shapers jurors are a combination of educators and professionals, who come highly recommended to us by other notable organizations, such as the Visual Arts Scholastic Event (VASE), as well as others. Many of our jurors have experience both in and out of the classroom, which gives them a unique and valuable perspective on evaluating student artwork.
