Student Art Contest Submission Guidelines
About the contest
What does climate change look like to you? How is our changing climate reflected in art? How does it influence the mediums you work with or create? How is it affecting the world around you? What observations have you made from working with changing mediums?
We are looking for creative pieces at the nexus of art and science- as art not only communicates climate science, but acts as a vital way of observing and documenting our changing climate.
Showcase your work as a part of the third-annual Global Climate Action Symposium. College students may submit a photo, scan in artwork (painting, drawing, collage, etc.), send mp3 files of music, share video files, take a picture of a three-dimensional piece, or create a 3D digital rendering.
