Our contests this month include “Inktober,” during which you write, draw, create a photograph, or create a short video based on the prompt for a particular day. Check out the prompts here. Each prompt is only one word, like “dream” or “path.” The other contest is one we ran last year, the Halloween Creativity Contest. Both are open for submissions until Halloween.
To make a submission, you can email Ms. MacCorkle (heather.maccorkle@jtasd.org). If you want to become a regular contributor, Ms. MacCorkle can add you to a list of users. Thanks, and good luck!
