Please be advised that due to overwhelming requests, the deadline for submission of Registration Forms for both Students and Schools has been extended to Friday 27th October, 2017.
RULES AND GUIDELINES
Using the theme “Squatting Affects You and Me” The LSA intends to ignite the minds of our nation’s youth via an Art Competition which will both be geared towards students in the following categories:
- Primary Schools- (Standards 1-3) 2 Dimensional Art
- Secondary Schools (Forms 1-3) 3 Dimensional Models
Students are expected to clearly highlight via creative self-expressions, any aspect of squatting as it affects the everyday lives of citizens within our nation. Innovative and critical thinking will be encouraged here.
PRIMARY SCHOOLS
Primary School participants would be required to submit a 2D representation of their interpretation of the theme. Registration begins September 20th, 2017 until October 12th, 2017. Registration forms must be printed out, stamped with the School Stamp and taped to the bottom right corner of the back of the artwork. The art piece must be a minimum of 11×17 inches and must not be larger than 20×26 inches. The piece MUST be accompanied by a description (200 words maximum) of what is being represented. There are no limitations on the type of material that can be used in the 2D art piece. Entries that are not properly labelled would be disqualified. Please note that photographs would NOT be accepted as an acceptable art submission.
