This year's Visual Arts Competition is a great opportunity to learn more about climate change.

To enter the competition, students are asked to consider what aspect of climate change is most important to them, and what they think we should be doing to combat climate change. They must then create a compelling work of art, in a medium of their choice (e.g. watercolour, sketch, oil painting, sculpture, digital art, collage) to illustrate an aspect of climate change. There is also a written component of a 50-word description.
