Children for Peace 2007

Art for Peace Contest

Invitation to Participate

Bluegrass Community and Technical College’s Peace and Justice Coalition, in connection with the May 19, 2007 Second Annual Peace and Global Citizenship Fair, is sponsoring an art for peace contest.

All K-12 students living in the Bluegrass of Kentucky are eligible to participate. Using pastels, crayons, pen and ink, acrylics, oil, charcoal, or watercolors, students are invited to draw or paint a picture of the peaceful world in which he or she wants to live.

Entries will be accepted at Bluegrass Community and Technical College between April 1st and April 16th. If pick-up is needed, please call Rebecca Glasscock.

Four $25 prizes will be awarded: one for grades K-2, one for grades 3-5, one for grades 6-8, and one for grades 9-12. Commemorative ribbons will be awarded. All entries will be displayed on May 19th, during the Second Annual Peace and Global Citizenship Fair, at the BCTC campus (directly north of Commonwealth Stadium in Lexington). After the event, these creative works of peace and hope for the future will form a collage for the 2008 Bluegrass Peace Calendar.
