Reflections Art

“Accepting Imperfection”

We’re excited to announce “Accepting Imperfection” as the theme for the 2024-25 Reflections Art Program. Reflections has been bringing the arts to life for more than 10 million students since 1969. The PTA and its members, families and kids are on the forefront of this amazing program, which increases community awareness of the importance of arts in education.

All students attending PTA schools sponsoring the program are invited to participate and submit original artwork in one of six areas:

  • Dance Choreography
  • Literature
  • Photography
  • Film Production
  • Music Composition
  • Visual Arts

Age categories are distinguished as Primary (Preschool-Grade 2), Intermediate (Grades 3-5), Middle School (Grades 6-8), High School (Grades 9-12), Accessible Arts (All grades welcome)

Artworks are submitted first to school-level PTAs, where they are first recognized, celebrated and judged by five grade-level divisions, the Special Artists division celebrates student artists with special needs. School PTAs then choose a selection of entries to be judged by local PTA units, which are then sent on to councils and then districts for consideration. The final artworks submitted to California State PTA by districts are then considered for Outstanding Interpretation, Awards of Excellence or Awards of Merit. Outstanding Interpretation and Award of Excellence entries then go on to represent California in the final National PTA judging round.
