This is the first year Gunn is hosting the student-judged “Not in Our School” Art Contest. Entries were submitted until April 24.

All forms of art have been accepted, including two-dimensional art, three-dimensional art and poetry as long as they embody either the theme of diversity or anti-discrimination. A two-paragraph explanation was also required. One to two representatives from each club at Gunn judged the work.

Cash prizes will be distributed for winning art pieces and the art will be featured on display. The idea for this art contest originated from the Women’s History Month Art Contest, which is no longer held at Gunn.

Junior Gay-Straight Alliance president junior Reese Probst believes that the art contest is beneficial to Gunn’s diverse atmosphere. “I think that letting people create art on the theme of tolerance really allows others to see the different ideas and views that are present at Gunn,” Probst said.
