The Journal Committed to Social Change on Race and Ethnicity (JCSCORE) is honored to support the Art Contest for 2015 NCORE. NCORE partners with two high schools in Washington DC to generate art pieces from students to be featured in the NCORE conference guide. JCSCORE has selected Friendship Collegiate by Aisa Willisto be published in this inaugural issue. Aisa Willis’ art piece showcases the Civil Rights Movement and interconnections of race, ethnicity and social justice in our country. NCORE received 23 submissions of artwork, which were inspiring and thoughtful. In addition to the piece of artwork selected to be published in this inaugural issue, NCORE conference program booklet is featuring all six runners-up. We believe that you will find these pieces of artwork to be incredibly profound and heartfelt. Each participant’s school will receive a small monetary award to be used to help replenish art supplies that are used for this competition and in overall support of the school’s art program. The mentor teachers and students will be recognized during an art show in the conference hotel.
