Entry fees are $10.00 per individual entry and $30.00 per portfolio entry.
If the entry fee is a barrier to your participation in the Awards, simply select the “fee waiver” option when entering your work in the online portal. If you have received instructions from your Affiliate about specific regional fee waiver protocols, please follow them.
If you are able to pay—please do! Your nominal entry fee helps a national community of creative teens participate in this program.
The Awards are presented by the Alliance for Young Artists & Writers, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, and its Affiliate Partners. Entry fees support essential operational costs.
Fee waivers are made possible, in part, by BLICK Art Materials.
