Every year, students are challenged to submit artwork with a particular theme in mind. This year’s theme is: I WILL CHANGE THE WORLD BY…We’d like to send a special thank you to VV students and Reflections participants, Bella, Jay, and Aanya, who encouraged students to give it a try!  Next up, submissions will be judged anonymously by professional experts in each category.
