Two annual student contests sponsored by the Richardson City Council began accepting entries Jan. 1: the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Essay Contest and the “Black History Month: Celebrating Diversity and Inclusion” Art Contest.
Each contest is open to students (eligible grades vary by contest) who live in Richardson or attend school within the city. The essay contest ends Jan. 31 and the art contest ends Feb. 28. Rules and deadlines for each may be found online. Winners in each age category receive $200 and will be recognized at a future City Council meeting.
