There’s just one week left for children and teens to enter the City’s annual Black History Month: “Celebrating Diversity and Inclusion” Art Contest—submissions are due by Saturday, Feb. 28 at 11:59 p.m. Students in grades 1-12 who reside in Richardson or attend school in Richardson are invited to use the prompt, “Unsung Heroes” to design a piece, either 2D or 3D, that creates a tribute to a lesser-known figure in their life, a community leader or a family member who has made a meaningful impact.
Entering is easy— artists attach a photo of their work (as a .jpg) online within the online submission form. Submissions are placed into one of four groups for judging based on grade level. Winning works will be published by the City in an upcoming issue of Richardson Today, with artists receiving $200 plus certificates of achievement from the Mayor and Council.
