YoungArts

Requirements

Requirements may vary for each category. Please review the specific requirements for your category (below) carefully before registering for the YoungArts program.

Evaluation Criteria

Visual Arts participants are asked to present work that best exemplifies the extent and quality of their accomplishment. The panelists look for the development of original ideas in the work submitted – imagination, competence, and the skillful use of materials. While it is expected that participants will consult their teachers in the selection of portfolio material, participants are urged to submit work that they personally feel represents their creative interests best.

What Panelists Look For

"The panel is seeking an artist who is technically proficient but more importantly, the artist must demonstrate a personal aesthetic; one that promises an original contribution to the visual arts."

"Technically strong but unique in approach to even routine assignments. Strong, original, independent work."

"We are looking for young artists who have accomplished technique and consistency but also have original vision and energy that set their work apart from all the others."
