PARTICIPATION IS EASY, EXCITING AND EMPOWERING

All entries must be new pieces of artwork inspired by this year's theme!

No "recycled" entries from art class, dance recital, school assignment, previous Reflections entry, etc.

Please remember that:

  • All entries submitted must be original works and must relate to the Reflections Program theme “I Belong!”
  • Each entry must be the work of only one student. Assistance from teachers, parents, or friends is not permitted except in special cases (such as for those with visual or physical disabilities)
  • Participation encourages creativity and exploration. Students should do their best, but crooked lines, incorrect musical notes, or misspelled words do not disqualify anyone.
