The Art Department is inviting Stuy students to participate in a contest to create an original design for a holiday card that best represents the winter season. The winner will have their artwork become the e-card sent out by Principal Yu in December. The winner and two runners-ups will be chosen! Each year artwork submitted is used to wish a happy holiday season on Stuy's official social media pages. The judges will be looking for:
- creativity and originality

- interpretation of the subject matter/theme
Here are the rules for the contest:
- Only one piece of artwork per student may be submitted.
- Artwork must be completed by one student only. Group participation for one piece of artwork is not permitted.
