Creative Voices Wanted!

Are you a poet, a painter, a playwright, a filmmaker, a photographer, a composer, a musician, a dancer, a sculptor, a singer, a storyteller, a digital artist--or anyone else with artistic talent and vision? 

If so, show off your creativity in NCC's 2013 Student Multimedia Arts and Writing Competition.

The competition is sponsored by NCC 101: The College Experience, the NCC Foundation, and the College bookstore in cooperation with the First-Year Experience Committee and the Center for Arts & Humanities.  It's open to all current NCC students--full-time or part-time, day or evening, first semester or last.  Between now and the April 15 deadline, you can submit an entry in one of three categories: Performance, Writing, or Visual Art.

The only requirement (well, almost the only requirement) is that your submission respond in some way to the college-wide theme of "Journeys" or to this year's common reading, "Enrique's Journey."  There are a few other competition requirements, which you can learn about by visiting
ncc.edu/studentlife/first_year_experience/creative_competition.shtml and downloading an entry form.

In case you're wondering, students submitting winning entries will receive prizes, including gift cards and some neat merchandise.  They'll also have the opportunity to see their work displayed on campus. 

So don't wait--start writing/filming/composing/painting/performing, etc. etc.   We know you're busy and have lots of other things happening in your life.  But Art matters.  And so does your voice.  Share both with the campus.
