Do you have a creative child who enjoys expressing his/her talents through the arts? PTA Reflections is a nationwide art program available to all Harmony students. The program exists to provide kids with the opportunity to express their creativity in one or more of the following art categories: dance choreography, film production, literature, music composition, photography and visual arts.
Each entry should focus on the 2018-19 theme, Heroes Around Me. Each student will need to explain how his/her art relates to the theme in a personal artist statement on the application. The connection between the theme and the artwork is a critical part of the judging process.
NEW THIS YEAR: In previous years, Reflections entries have had the potential to be judged at 4 different levels (school, district, state and national). Unfortunately, we are not able to participate at the district level this year because District 13 does not have a complete PTA board. This means that school winners will promote directly to the state competition. Please note that the state award ceremony takes place in May and we are not able to host a local award ceremony beforehand as we have in years past. Students will still have the opportunity to earn awards at the school, state and national level.
If your child is interested in Reflections, please review the official rules and submit his/her work along with the completed Entry Form. Please be sure to include an email address on the entry form so I can contact you with any questions.
All entries will be due in the school office by 10 am on Wednesday, November 7, though students are encouraged to turn them in earlier.
Should you have any questions about the program, contact me at brandymschaefer@gmail.com.
Good luck Huskies!
