Contest Procedures:
- Submissions are turned in to the Greenbrook PTA by October 3rd, where they are recognized, celebrated and judged according to grade-level divisions, while a non-judged Special Artists division celebrates student artists with special needs.
- A selection of entries is chosen to be judged by local PTA units, which are then sent on to councils and then districts for consideration.
- The final artwork is then submitted to California State PTA and considered for Awards of Excellence or Awards of Merit. Award of Excellence entries then go on to represent California in the final National PTA judging round.
State-level Award of Excellence honorees receive:
The opportunity to showcase their artwork at the California State PTA Convention
Prizes including an Award of Excellence medal, certificate and a $100 savings bond presented on stage at convention
