Frühlingsfest Student Art Competition

Leading up to the festival, we would like to highlight middle and high school students’ talents by displaying their Kunst (art) in our auditorium. The theme for the competition is “Frühling in Europa (Spring in Europe).” We are particularly interested in artwork that reflects springtime in Deutschland (Germany), Österreich (Austria), or der Schweiz (Switzerland). We will select between 20-30 pieces to be displayed for the month of März (March).
​
​Submissions are due February 23, and we will host a voting event at our offices on March 6.
