This contest lets you express your idea and make it come to life by entering ONE of the following three contest categories:

ARTS (Painting, drawing, sculpture, wood, mixed media, craftwork, etc) (submit photo)
THEATRE ARTS (Singing, dancing, instrumentals, piano, drama, comedy, storytelling) (submit video)
WRITING (poetry, song lyrics, stories, etc) (submit Word document or PDF (1,000 words or less))

In EACH category, prizes will be awarded: 1st Prize is $100, 2nd  Prize is $75, 3rd Prize is $50
