Creative competition to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act

To celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, Youth advocate Lacy Pittman has envisioned a competition sponsored by the HSC Foundation called “My Generation: Youth, the ADA, and Art”, which invites young individuals with disabilities ages 16 to 24 to interpret their thoughts about the Americans with Disabilities Act through a creative medium.

Eligible entries include paintings, videos (3 minute maximum), posters (hand drawn or digital), works of literature (4 pages, 2000 words max, double spaced, 12 size Arial font), or drawings that illustrate the historical and societal impact of the ADA.

“My Generation: Youth, the ADA, and Art” contest is now accepting submissions (from now until July 31st). If you are, or know, a young person with a disability between the ages of 16 – 24 who would like to submit a creative medium about the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and its impact on your/their life, please see www.hscfoundation.org/mygenerationcontest.php for more information.
