REFLECTIONS
This year’s reflection theme is: Accepting Imperfection
See the flyer HERE. The purpose of the program is to encourage students to develop their talents in the arts and give them an opportunity to express themselves and explore their talents.
Students must create an original piece of work inspired by the theme. Each piece must be the original work created by one student.
Students can bring the theme to life in any of six categories: Dance, Film, Literature, Photography, Musical Composition, and Visual Arts. There is also an accessible arts division.
