National PTA believes all children deserve a quality arts education and encourages students to pursue artistic expression through participation in its annual arts Reflections Program. The program offers students the opportunity to create works of art for fun and recognition. Students in preschool through grade 12 are encouraged to create and submit works of art in one or more of six areas: literature, musical composition, photography, visual arts (which includes art forms such as drawing, painting, print making, and collage), dance choreography and film/video production. In its more than 30-year history, the program has encouraged millions of students across the nation and in American schools overseas to create works of art.

Theme: Show Your Voice!

Deadline for Submissions:
Friday, October 7^th to Ms. Queen in the Media Center

 

Reflections is a national PTA contest that starts at the school level. Your child can submit as many entries as they would like in 1 of the 6 categories. Their entries will be grouped by grade level  (i.e., K-2 and 3-5) and judged based upon interpretation of the theme, creativity, and technique. The first and second place winner in each category and grade grouping will move on to compete in the Marietta district level. Winners at the district level will move on to the state competition. Winners at the state level will then compete on the national level.

On October 28, we will host our PTA Reflections Art Celebration and Talent Show.
