 Do you enjoy art, music and dance or have an interest in telling stories, producing films and taking photos? Then join us in participating in the Eckstein PTA’s Reflections art competition, and create original works of art inspired by the theme I Will Change the World By… Eckstein’s annual competition is part of the National PTA program that encourages students of all ages and abilities to explore and be involved in the arts. Eckstein students are encouraged to submit their completed works of art in one, or all, of the available arts categories: Dance Choreography, Film Production, Literature, Music Composition, Photography, Visual Arts. Student entry rules can be found here in English and Spanish. The contest will be virtual and all submissions must be made online. A special artist division is an option for students with a disability as defined under the Americans with Disabilities Act. Generally, rules and guidelines within the special artists division are intended to ensure accessibility to the National PTA Reflections® program and are modeled after the guidelines outlined in the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Complete details are included in the 2021-22 special artist rules. Eckstein’s deadline is Nov. 1. Entries are judged on creative ability and interpretation of the theme. Student winners from the local level have the opportunity to move up through their district, region, council and state PTA programs to the national level. Top national-level winners receive prizes and scholarships and their works are showcased and exhibited. The entry form can be found here. Submissions must be emailed to ptaprogdir@wastatepta.org by Nov. 1. Don't forget to include our school PTSA's name and ID number (Eckstein 00023205). For more information, contact parent volunteer Rachael Levy.  Each year, National PTA seeks a theme for the Reflections program year to be held two years from now. This year students are asked to submit a theme for the 2023-2024 program year. The due date for submitting a theme search entry is Nov. 1. The student who submits the winning entry will receive $100 and his or her theme will be presented at the annual National PTA Convention in June 2022. Repeat themes will not be considered.
