2020 Youth Art Challenge
Stock photos just aren’t giving us the look we want to represent the many strengths to be found in individuals with FASD’s. We would love to update our “portfolio” and use Youth created art instead, on our website, social media, presentations and handouts. Photography, digital art, coloring, or drawing are all options. Your art doesn’t have to be about FASD, it can be about anything you want, as long as you create the art and characters yourself. Download the submission form here for instructions and submit your art by April 30th, 2020.
