For more information about this contest, please call Dinah Satterwhite
at 842-0504. The Student Art Contest is a program of the Bainbridge
Island Arts & Humanities Council (BIAHC, 842-7901).
*CATEGORIES — DIVIDED: In
the event that a large number of entries are received for any single
category, we reserve the right to divide the category. For example,
Grades 3 & 4 could be divided into 2-D and 3-D. Or in the case of
High School Photography, we might offer alternative categories such as
Color, Black & White, Digital, Film, etc. This will allow us to
judge the entries on a “finer” scale, and offer more prizes. We won’t
know if this is necessary until all of the entries are received, and
then we will try to make the decision by Noon.
