In honor of the Diamond Jubilee year, we invite artists to consider theircreations in reflection of one or more of these prompts.

These creative prompts are designed to be a springboard for the artists to produceoriginal work. We encourage all artists to have an open-interpretation and to feelfree to create abstract connections to these themes.

As part of the application process, each artist or group will be asked to describehow their submission connects to one of the creative prompts.
