(Neosho, MO) – The Crowder Quill art and literary magazine of Crowder College is now accepting entries for its annual contest in literature, photography and art.
The free competition accepts entries in eight different categories: poetry, fiction, nonfiction, B&W photography, color photography, digital art, 2D art, and 3D art.
“The Quill has adopted a policy against the use of artificial intelligence that replaces the creative expression of human-generated art and original thought,” stated Latonia Bailey, Quill Adviser. “However, digital technology such as photo editing software may be used as a tool for the digital art category, and the creative process should be clearly explained in the entry details.”
Entries should be sent as digital files and uploaded online through the portal accessed, here, on the page tab “To enter contest.”
Individuals may submit up to four entries in each category by the February 1 deadline. Specific guidelines for each category and more information may be obtained on the website.
Crowder students as well as area high school students and community members compete for awards and publication. High school students may also win a $500 scholarship for top placement in each category.
Email Quill@Crowder.edu to make arrangements for hand-delivered 2D and 3D art entries or if internet access is an issue. Winning entrants will be notified by mid-March, and the magazine will be published in May.
The Quill has been published since 1980 with the mission of encouraging and showcasing local authors, artists, and photographers. It is distributed free on campus and in the community as well as digitally.
The Crowder Quill class is part of the Digital Media Marketing certificate at Crowder College in which students gain skills in content creation, marketing strategies, social media, graphic design, and communication.
For more information about the contest or the spring semester college course that produces the Quill, DIGM 105 Applied Graphic Design and Media Campaigns, contact Latonia Bailey: LatoniaBailey@crowder.edu.
