Students participate in the Reflections Program through their local PTA unit. 

• They may submit entries in any of the six arts areas and may enter more than one work.
• Only original works of art are accepted. 
• Any PTA unit in good standing may sponsor a Reflections program in their school/community. 

It is the responsibility of your PTA to organize, promote and encourage participation in Reflections in your school(s).  Each unit must also determine a judging process to select up to twenty-four entries to be forwarded to the Minnesota PTA for participation at the state level.  Approximately 80 state winners (five from each age/art category) are recognized at a statewide ceremony in the spring.  The PTA unit may also organize a local display of artwork.  Involving the community in implementing this program is a way to celebrate the importance of quality arts education for all children.  Units serving Spanish-speaking students may obtain a copy of the rules in Spanish by calling the Minnesota PTA office or e-mailing MNPTA with your request.

Thank you, in advance, for your time and dedication to the students of your community!

The deadline for submitting entries by the local PTA to MNPTA for judging is February 2, 2010.
