Q. What is your "Look Again" Found Object Art & Writing Challenge about? Can you do it during the school year?

A.

Started in 2015, my annual Summer "Look Again" Creative Challenge is a found object art challenge for young artists and writers. Link to each year's challenge is posted on my main Look Again found object art page each summer.

I do this because I'm hoping to help inspire more young readers to create more art and writing during the summer.

I've had a growing number of people (especially educators) ask if I could do another challenge during the school year. While I encourage teachers to create found object art and writing with their students during the school year (I'm gradually adding resources to my Look Again page to help), I currently lack the time and resources to manage this.

Also, any book prizes I send out are books I've paid for out of my own pocket, as is the postage/handling. I live in Canada, and sometimes the postage/handling ends up costing almost as much or more than the books themselves!
