The theme of the contest is “making a difference.”
According to the rules, submission must be two-dimensional, on paper, no bigger than 17 x 24 and no smaller than 8 1/2 x 11 and have the participant’s full name, address, school attending and phone number on the back of the artwork (to notify the winners).

The deadline for submissions is April 21.
Six winners will be selected from each grade. The selection criteria includes originality, creativity, connection to your community and artistry.
The six winners will have their artwork showcased in an upcoming edition of “The Berliner Brief” and the winners’ art will be posted on Councilmember Berliner’s website. Winners and honorable mentions will be notified by phone and announced at noon on Earth Day, April 22nd.
