Art Competition & Portfolio

Grade 6 - 9th

Ocean Awareness / River of Words / National Fossil Day / Junior Duck Stamp

We keep our eyes peeled for art contests that students can participate in, and help them through the process of application and submission. Students can challenge themselves to compete locally and nationally and gain confidence in their abilities. While many contest-holders offer cash and other prizes, they also grant awards that make students stand out among other college applicants. Our students have been consistently recognized for their talent by the Scholastic Art and Writing Awards and other national arts organizations.

Art Competition & Portfolio Prep. for grade 6-12&up

Ashcan’s art competition and portfolio program help students develop a unique and coherent body of work that is essential to the pursuit of higher studies. Students get personal attention from instructors to focus on personal projects and creative thinking. Students learn how to develop their ideas in two-dimensional work such as drawing, painting, and mixed media to help them create high-quality art portfolios.
