Leaders Igniting Transformation has launched an Artist Activist competition for Milwaukee area high school students! As the presidential election approaches, we want to uplift the voices of Black and Brown artists. Participants are encouraged to submit artwork that highlights the importance of voting, democracy, and fighting for our communities. Whether you are eligible to vote or not, you have the power to impact our society. 

Art submissions will be accepted from now until October 30th OR when we receive 32 submissions. LIT members will be the judges of the art pieces and will be selecting 3 lucky winners who will be announced in early November! 

1st place: $250

2nd place: $150

3rd place: $75

Application and other details may be found HERE!

Please share with all high school students in your network!
