We just finished the May 2025 Circle C Kick Off to Summer Art & Writing Contest. Thank you, Kregel Publications, for suppling the book prizes and helping with the judging.
Young writers answered this prompt:
Imagine yourself living on a ranch in the 1880s. What would you spend your time doing? Lassoing? Riding a horse? Watching a sunrise or sunset? Or? Use your imagination to write an original piece about your favorite place on the ranch or a favorite ranch activity in less than 500 words, or create a short poem. Or you may create an original piece of artwork about your favorite place or favorite activity.

Here’s what my marketing gal said about doing graphic design for your entry:
Graphic design is basically using digital platforms like Canva or Adobe Illustrator to create art, but from scratch. It’s all digital drawing. I would say it just has to be original and can’t use elements they don’t own.
Hope that helps!
