The Art of Being a Military Child

The Military Child Education Coalition (MCEC) seeks to promote the Arts by featuring the great works of military children. Each year children are asked to submit work that can be utilized in the MCEC’s publications, conferences, and other activities. Included in the request for work from military-connected children, kindergarten through high school, are artwork, film, and writing (essays, poetry, and short stories).

Artwork in the visual arts is featured at the MCEC’s national conference each year. It is utilized in the On The Move magazine, the annual calendar, the conference program, and other MCEC publications. 

Writing, including essays, poetry, and short stories, is featured in the national conference program, the On The Move magazine, the annual calendar, and other MCEC publications.

Film is considered for the “Reel Military” Youth Film and Video Festival at the national conference each year.

Please see the attached documents for details.  All submissions must be postmarked no later than February 26, 2010.
