I am passing on this information about an art contest in our area. Our art teacher, Ms. Linda, is sure to be sending entries from our Extraordinary Education students, and I believe homeschoolers can enter independently as private schools as well. So get your art work completed and sent in!
Dear Private School Educator,
The Pearl's 2013 Student Art Contest is rapidly approaching. This is just a reminder that your entries (no more than 20 per school) should be submitted March 25-27 by an appointment with me. No entry fees are required again this year.
Please do not submit more than one entry per student; no electronically altered works; no collage extending more than 1/2 inch. All works on paper should be matted, and no larger than 18x24 (not including matting). Works on canvas boards or stretched canvas do not need to be matted. No frames, please. New this year: Entries no longer need to remain anonymous and unsigned. The Pearl hires independent jurors usually from outside the contest area and the chance for conflict of interest is rare. It's disappointing for us to reject entries once they reach the Pearl. For more information, contact me or consult the Pearl website www.pearlmfa.org
I'm looking forward to seeing your students' remarkable art work!
Best regards,
Sylvia deHek
