Hillsborough County Region 2021 Presenting Sponsor Hosted By “To give those high school students who demonstrate superior talent and achievement in things of the spirit and of the mind at least a fraction of the honors and rewards accorded to their athletic classmates for demonstrating their bodily skills.” − M. R. Robinson, 1923, Founder of Scholastic, Inc. Joining a Legacy By receiving a Scholastic Art & Writing Award, our students join a legacy of celebrated authors and artists such as Tschabalala Self, Stephen King, Kay WalkingStick, Charles White, Joyce Carol Oates and Andy Warhol, all of whom received recognition in the Awards when they were teens. National Submissions This year, teens ages 13 and up from across the nation in grades 7-12 submitted more than 110,000 works of art and writing to the Awards through more than 100 local Affiliates of the Alliance. These Affiliates host exhibitions in museums and galleries across the country, showcasing their best art and writing. About the Awards The Scholastic Art & Writing Awards are the nation’s largest, longest running and most prestigious scholarship and recognition program for teenage artists and writers. Since 1923, the Awards have recognized teenagers from across the country for their unique vision and voice in 29 categories including architecture, painting, flash fiction, poetry, printmaking, video game design and more. Recognition After the Awards National Medalists will be announced in March 2021, and Gold Medalists will be celebrated virtually for the National Ceremony. All National Medalists are eligible for a wealth of additional opportunities, such as inclusion in the Art.Write.Now.Tour traveling exhibition, and in The Best Teen Art and The Best Teen Writing anthologies. National Medalist poets are considered for the National Student Poets Program, the nation’s highest honor for young poets presenting original work.

Exhibition Host: The Hillsborough Region of the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards extends thanks to The University of Tampa, College of Arts and Letters for their support in hosting students, teachers, and families at this 2021 Art & Writing Exhibition. Special thanks to: About the Judging Freedom of Expression: There are no restrictions or mandates on subject matter. Blind Judging: Judging is determined on a merit basis with only the art object under review. Judges do not have knowledge of the students’ identities. Three Criteria: Originality, Technique and Emergence of a Personal Vision or Voice Originality Judges look for works that reveal an innovative approach to process, concept and subject matter. Originality often manifests itself in works that go beyond the classroom assignment. Exploration of materials, techniques and/or themes should reflect the input of the student in the creative process. Technical Skill Judges look for demonstration of the student’s ability to work fluently within a particular medium or genre. Technical proficiency may vary across medium or grade group. Judges are called to consider how technical skill has been utilized to advance an original idea or perspective. Emergence of a Personal Vision or Voice Judges look for evidence of the writer/artist’s unique style, sensibility and perspective and how that is displayed through the piece of writing or art. Judges are looking for work that represents a sense of the student of works that are individualistic in their presentation, execution or ideas. 2021 Hillsborough County Region Art & Writing Awards Judges Shawn Amos Michael Lewis George Anderton Jane Murray Lewis Janice Andrews Mark Mai Patricia Beach Blaine Maurice Amanda Bedford Roger Mills Terry Bigelow Courtney Nucjel Elizabeth Brown Marta O’Brien Autumn Dent Victoria Pagel Kimberly DeFusco Erin Parke Lynn Dougherty Eva Philpot Holly Ewing Mary Ross Kristen Ferrin Stanton Storer Jose Gelats Madeline Sweitzer Jennifer Gilgan Melisa Toothman Candice Hall Caroll Vick Jennifer Hamilton R.
