As part of Half in Ten’s mission to build the political and public will to cut poverty in half in ten years, our campaign is launching its first national art competition starting today through June 31st with the theme Our American Dream—What will it take to get there?

Through art, our goal is to engage as many children and young people across the country, ages 4 through 24, in a national conversation with their families, teachers, and community members about poverty and what we need to do as a nation tackle it. Winners of the competition will be announced in a variety of age categories with prizes ranging from art kits, to ipads, to a trip to DC. We also plan to feature some of the entries in upcoming Half in Ten reports, products, and other campaign materials.

There are six age categories of winners and the prizes are:

Ages 4-5: art kit

Ages 6-7: art kit

Ages 8-10: ipad

Ages 11-13: ipad

Ages 14-18: trip to DC with chaperone

Ages 19-24: trip to DC
