MORE ABOUT REFLECTIONS

The Reflections Program was established in 1969 by the National PTA. Since that time, more than 10 million students have participated in this annual program. The PTA Reflections Program is an arts recognition and achievement program for students. A theme is given and students can submit work in one of the categories.  Participation and appreciation for the arts is the Reflections Program's goal. Although the Reflections Program follows a "contest" format, winning is not the emphasis.
 

National PTA’s Reflections program has helped students explore their own thoughts, feelings and ideas, develop artistic literacy, increase confidence and find a love for learning that will help them become more successful in school and in life.. Each year, over 300,000 students in Pre-K through Grade 12 create original works of art in response to a student-selected theme.
