Reflections Art Contest
10/16/2024 9:27 am
This Year's Reflections Theme is “"Accepting Imperfections"
Let’s encourage our young artists to share their hopes and dreams, expressing the things to which they most look forward.
Reflections is not “just an art contest.” It helps kids take risks, be inspired, think creatively, and be celebrated for their creativity and work. Working towards a theme and on a timeline can help them build successful processes that will be useful throughout their lives.
Reflections Artwork Categories
The National Reflections program welcomes all grades and abilities to explore and be involved in the arts. Students submit their completed works of art in one or more of the available arts categories:
- Dance Choreography
- Film Production
- Literature
- Music Composition
- Photography
- Visual Arts*
The deadline to submit works of art is Monday, November 4, 2024 at 10:00pm. All submissions must be original works of art.
More details coming soon!
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Andrew Wilson, Committee Chair Reflections Program, at reflections@peterkirkptsa.org.
*Peter Kirk PTSA’s Reflections program is not accepting 3D artwork at this time. 3D art includes sculptures, dioramas, architecture, 3D printing, etc.
