Calling all Artists!

The National PTA Reflections contest wants you to create and explain how YOU will change the world!

Just turn in your artwork and entry form, which includes your artist statement, by  OCTOBER 24, 2021 

Submit your work by uploading everything through our google form HERE

We know that not all students are on the same schedule and we encourage students to turn their work in early.

All entries must be done by individual students and cannot be replications.

Each entry must contain a title and all entries must include an artist statement.

The artist statement communicates what inspired the work, how it relates to the theme, and the content of the work. The statement must include at least 10 words and not exceed 100 words. The artist statement is worth 40 out of 100 points and is just as important as the artwork.

Only new pieces of artwork inspired by the current year’s theme may be submitted.

Each entry must be the original work of one student only. An adult may not alter the creative integrity of a student’s work and help from an adult or collaboration with other students is not allowed.
