What does freedom mean to you? In commemoration and celebration of the 150th anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation, the National Park Service (NPS) announces a nationwide art competition in three categories: photography, poetry, and digital short films. The competition is open to students ages 13 to 18 and will be juried by professional artists. Submissions of artistic works are required to explore personal meanings of freedom and relate to nationally significant themes. The first-place winner in each category will receive a $2,500 academic scholarship. Second-place winners in each category will receive a $1,000 academic scholarship.

On Saturday, July 14, artist and art therapist Elizabeth Cockey offered a community art workshop called Learn to Paint (Immediately) !

Elizabeth says,  “Many adults are afraid to paint because they don’t want to look stupid, or be embarrassed at a first attempt at painting; others have never picked up a brush before or tell me that they're not creative.  By demonstrating my simple painting techniques--I can show anyone how to paint and be successful. I have never had anyone fail.”

A fun, creative, and productive time was had by all!
