Due to several circumstances: not wanting to have conflicts with proms and the ending of school activities, we’re moving the YVOH Finals back to April 9th.
That means there will be only two more semi finals: February 21st and March 5th. We will increase the number of contestants to 16 for each event. First 16 to sign up get in and we’ll take “back-ups” in case of last minute fall-outs.
This also means that we will have completed SEVEN semi final rounds and ALL who placed 1st or 2nd place are invited to the FINALS (a potential of 14 finalists though a person who finished 2nd and then 1st means we will probably end up with around 12).

About the Culture Shapers Jurying Process...
Culture Shapers jurors are a combination of educators and professionals, who come highly recommended to us by other notable organizations, such as the Visual Arts Scholastic Event (VASE), as well as others. Many of our jurors have experience both in and out of the classroom, which gives them a unique and valuable perspective on evaluating student artwork.
