Disponible en: Español

Aldine ISD Visual Arts Department is bringing back the #AldineArt Challenge for art students. Aldine art students will have an opportunity to submit artwork to their art teacher to be considered for the monthly contest. Student artists can submit photography, 2D and 3D art projects.

Each art theme aligns with the visual arts curriculum. Students will be able to take what they have learned and turn in the best of their work.

“It is important to advocate for our visual art students and teachers,” Kaileigh Newman, Aldine ISD Director of Visual Arts, said. “Art teachers are creating exemplary virtual art lessons and students are responding. The artwork students are creating should be visible for all to see. The art challenge is an opportunity is to celebrate and highlight the creativity of our Aldine art students.”

Personal Expression: Imaginative and original interpretation of presented theme.
Composition: Suitability of expression, organization and technique through use of elements and principles of art. Composition reflects aesthetic and critical judgment.

The monthly art winner will be announced the Monday after submission week. Art winners will receive a sketchbook, drawing set, and a certificate of achievement from the Visual Arts Department. Students and teachers are encouraged to showcase their student art submissions by using the hashtags #AldineArt and #AldineArtChallenge.
