THE 19th ANNUAL DENNIS THOMAS
ART & WRITING CHALLENGE - 2016
Topic for 2016:
"Cherish these natural wonders"
President Theodore Roosevelt said, “Cherish these natural wonders, cherish the natural resources, cherish the history and romance as a sacred heritage, for your children and your children's children. Do not let selfish men or greedy interests skin your country of its beauty, its riches or its romance.”
Today, as we face global warming and climate change, these words are more pressing than ever before.
How can our art help us as we raise our voice to stop climate change and the environmental destruction of our planet? Using your unique, artistic voice, create a visual and/or literary interpretation of cherishing and protecting the natural wonders and resources of our planet.
