Bianca Agnes

NJ Thespians – Costume Design

Bio: I am a Senior in the class of 2020 at Gloucester County Institute of Technology.
I have the honor of receiving the Governor’s Award for my costume designs. I have a Superior medal for my costume designs for two years in a row. I also received a superior medal for my senior classes group dance! I have spent my four years in high school studying in my school’s drama program. By studying in drama I luckily got introduced to Thespian society. I have been an active member of Thespian society since I have been a sophomore and have loved every second of it! Troupe 5480! For my future plans I will love to do anything in the Arts. I hope to be in fashion anyway I can! I love fashion and am so happy I got the chance to show off my skills by competing in Thespian competition this year!

The Governor’s Awards in Arts Education began in 1980 to promote awareness and appreciation of the arts, recognizing the creativity, talent and leadership of the award winners. Each year, awards are presented to approximately 20 educators and 80 students. National and statewide organizations select the students for their exemplary work in creative writing, speech, dance, music, theatre and visual arts and the leaders for their exceptional commitment and contribution to arts education. The program also recognizes arts educators and arts education advocates, whose leadership has helped nurture the development of students in the arts across the state.
