Lafayette will be highlighting our student's creativity as part of the National PTA Reflections Art contest! Ms. Bajaj & the PTA will be working with your students to create visual arts pieces inspired by this year's theme "I Belong!" K-3 will be working with Ms. Bajaj on their pieces in the classroom, while Grades 4-5 will be encouraged to complete a piece outside of class.
Lafayette PTA will be accepting entries in all categories this year.
Reproductions or enlargements of other artwork are not accepted.
Entries are judged on creative ability and interpretation of the theme.
Each entry must contain a title and all entries must include an artist statement. The artist statement communicates what inspired the work, how it relates to the theme, and the content of the work. The statement must include at least 10 words and not exceed 100 words.
