This year, let’s encourage our students to consider the importance of community with the 

2025-26 PTA Reflections Contest theme, “I Belong!” Student artists are invited to create original work!

Arts categories include: 

• VISUAL ARTS 

• LITERATURE 

• MUSIC COMPOSITION 

• PHOTOGRAPHY 

• FILM PRODUCTION.

• DANCE CHOREOGRAPHY 

Students with disabilities may enter the category that most closely aligns with their abilities, including the ACCESSIBLE ARTS category. See RULES for details about specific arts category submissions. 

In addition to creating the artwork, entries require a SUBMISSION FORM with personal information and a significant 10-100 word artist statement. This form is fillable.

Art entries (in acceptable digital formats dictated by art rules) and submission forms (in pdf) will need to be uploaded to a Google Form that is forthcoming. Physical art submissions will also be collected at each school for the purpose of display.

The deadline for the Wilton Public Schools contest is Friday, November 21st. The District wide Ceremony with art display and announcement of awards will take place in January, date to be announced.
