DESCRIPTION:Submissions Due: April 24th, 2020\n\nMt. Diablo Peace & Justice Center's 
 22nd Annual ART & WRITING CHALLENGE.  Open to Middle and High School 
 Students in Contra Costa County\n\nTopic/Prompt: "Our Connected 
 Planet"\n\nIn the past year, the Peace Center has been proud to see 
 momentum build in the climate justice movement, led by student activists. 
 They have mobilized huge numbers of people to stand up for our planet and 
 demand change from world leaders and policy-makers. \n\nThese students, 
 among many other inspiring activists and grassroots organizations, advocate 
 that climate justice must be addressed using an intersectional approach, 
 connecting the health of our planet with various forms of systemic 
 marginalization that disproportionately affect low-income folks of color, 
 immigrants and indigenous communities.\n\nFor this year's art and writing 
 challenge, we take inspiration from these activists and ask:\n\n- How has 
 your connection to our planet played a significant role in your life?\n- 
 How have you been impacted by threats to our climate/planet? How do you see 
 others being affected? \n- Do you see climate justice as connected to other 
 forms of social justice? If so, how? \n- In what ways is our planet 
 impacted or threatened by things like nuclear energy,  the 
 military-industrial complex, capitalism, and notions of "progress"? \n- 
 What would your vision of a just and healthy world look like?\n\nWe are 
 looking for submissions in three categories:\n(1. Visual Art (any medium), 
 2. Creative Writing, and 3. Essay) The theme is intentionally broad to 
 allow students the freedom to convey their vision. We hope that students 
 critically grapple with the past and present to inform their work. \n\nWe 
 believe that young people hold the keys to our future and it is up to all 
 of us to listen!\n\nPrizes range from $25-$500! \n\nArt & Writing 
 Submissions are due Friday, April 24, 2020.\n\nFor more submission contest
