In the category of Film Production, Sabrina Zeitawi receives the Award of Excellence.

The students with the Award of Excellence will go on to compete with other artwork from the Southern CA PTA. The results will be announced in January.

Each artist has dedicated their efforts in their artwork, using a diverse selection of mediums, adding their own unique perspective of the theme. Rachel Tran, a participant in the Reflections program, says, “The biggest struggle I had was coming up with the idea and the concept of the art piece as there are so many ways the world could be changed.” Within each submission, there is a distinct voice that carries its own value.

The topics students cover are the importance of kindness, humanitarian crisis, climate change, inclusivity, progress, peace, pollution and equality.
