The Coconino County African Diaspora Advisory Council (ADAC) is now accepting entries for its Black History Month Essay and Art Contest.
The contest is open to all elementary through high school students in Coconino County including homeschooled students. Submissions will center around the theme of “Black Examples of Courage and Resilience” and must be received by February 10.
“We’ve hosted the Black History Month essay contest at least 11 years, and this is our second year with the addition of the art contest,” said ADAC Chair Khara House. “Last year students really seemed to connect with the ability to express themselves in multiple ways, so we look forward to seeing what they bring to the theme. I’m excited to see and read what the students of Coconino County will offer this year.”
