Theme: “I Can Make A Difference By…”

The Reflections Program is a National PTA and a Washington State PTA cultural arts competition.  The purpose for this program is to provide an opportunity for students to use their creative talents by expressing themselves through their own original works, created around a specific theme.  This year’s theme is “I Can Make A Difference By…” and students decide what the phrase means to them and how they can explain what a difference means to them.

Rules and entry forms are available in the Evergreen Junior High library or main office.  Rules and entry forms are also available for download at the Washington State PTSA Reflections web site.

Students can enter up to two works in each of the following arts areas.  Only original works of art created by the artist working alone, for the 2007-2008 theme are accepted.

Arts Categories

•           Choreography/Dance—create original choreographed dance and perform it on tape.

•           Film/Video—fiction or nonfiction video created as animation, a narrative, documentary, experimental, or music video.

•           Literature—works of fiction, nonfiction, poetry, prose, drama, short stories, and lyrics.

•           Music Composition—original musical composition, with or without lyrics.

•           Photography—prints up to 11”x14” in color or black and white, including techniques of photogram, retouched, montage, sandwich, and multiple exposures.

•           Visual Arts—prints, drawings, painting, collages, photographic collages, metal etching, fiber work and computer generated art. Works of art must be flat and may not exceed more than 3/8” thickness. Artwork may not exceed 24” x 30” including matting.

 

Grade Division

Middle/Junior : ages 11-13

Senior: ages 14+

Finished entries should be turned into Laurie Towers in the main office at school, on or before, November 2, 2007 by 2:30 p.m.  Each entry must be accompanied by an official entry form.  Be sure you have read the rules and comply with them, so that your entry is not disqualified.

Finalists will be chosen in each of the categories and will have the opportunity to compete at the Lake Washington District level of the Reflections Program.  PTSA will use an NIB period in January, where all art will be displayed and students will have the opportunity to present their work.
