48 to CREATE

Event Details

Submission Deadline: December 30, 2018 @ 4PM EST

48 to Create is the ultimate youth creativity challenge. Teens are given a line of poetry and 48 hours to inspire a work of art – either visual, musical, or performance-based. All submissions will be posted on social media and publicly voted upon. Take your craft to the next level and help us showcase youth expression in the city!

Categories: Visual Arts, Musical Arts, Performance Arts

Interpretation of either of these themes is entirely up to you.  When the kickoff is launched via this website page, participants will receive a poetry prompt to base their creations on as well as the Google form submission link.
