But I’m not an artist. Can I still participate?
- Absolutely. Whether it is a painting, a sculpture made from aluminum foil, a drawing on a piece of notebook paper, or a poem written on a napkin. The focus is on the message. And how well that message is conveyed.
The theme is “justice.” What does that mean?
- That’s the point. This is about your expression/interpretation of justice.
Do I have to submit my work online or can I drop it off?
This is an online contest and it is strongly recommended that all submissions be uploaded to this website. However, if contestants wish to drop off entries in person, please take them to Gladfelter Hall, office 509, located on the Department of Criminal Justice floor.
For the visual arts category, you can submit up to three images online to provide alternate views of the same work.
