The Directing Change Program and Contest
February 8, 2023 @ 8:00 am - March 1, 2023 @ 5:00 pm
The Directing Change Program offers young people the opportunity to win prizes and promote mental health by expressing their feelings, taking action, and inspiring others through art. The monthly Hope & Justice category asks young people grades 5-12 (ages 12-25) to explore how they are coping through tough times. Students may submit entries related to the themes of “Hope,” “Justice,” or the monthly prompt below. All art forms accepted: poetry, original music, short films, visual art, TikToks, dance and more!
How we identify ourselves (our race, culture, gender, sexual orientation, and more) matters. It can help us feel connected to others when we feel alone.
You’re invited to share how you are “More Than One.” Create art in any form that shares how you’re living beyond limiting labels, how you find strength when you feel alone, and your hope for increased representation in the future.
