INTESOL Art Contest for K-12 ML/ELL Students

The INTESOL Journal editors are excited to once again invite original artwork submissions from K-12 Multilingual Learner (ML) and English Language Learner (ELL) students for possible publication on the cover of the Fall INTESOL Journal issue.

Students may submit original artwork in any medium, including drawing, painting, sculpture, collage, digital art, and more. To enter, simply upload a photograph or digital copy of the artwork as a JPG, GIF, PNG, or PDF via the submission link below.

While districts may submit multiple entries, we kindly ask that each ML/ELL student submit only one piece of artwork.
