The Future is Here
Each year, a large number of remarkable 7th and 8th graders, who have found their creative voices at a young age, courageously put forth their work for examination by a panel of renowned jurors and are honored by The Scholastic Art & Writing Awards. We encourage these young teens to continue to pursue their creative interests by making time for their craft and submitting their work for yearly evaluation in The Awards.
