Student Art Showcase — bring your students’ art to the Conference!

Conference Program Cover Design Contest

Each year, we invite students to design the cover for the annual Conference Program. The art will be shared on the web and in print and will be viewed by tons of educators and guests.

CCEA Plus Conference 2023, Taking Off Into the FutureThe Conference theme is announced in the fall each year, in advance of the spring Conference event. We begin accepting entries for the Conference in September, with an early spring deadline.

Entries will be decided by committee, and the winning design will become the cover for the Conference program and on other event materials. We’re proud to feature student art so prominently at our annual #AltEd event, full of educators and administrators from across California.

We also showcase more student art at the Conference venues, so teachers and students still have a chance to display these entries and all other works. Learn how to submit artwork for the Student Art Showcase below.

Please submit student designs through the form below by the contest’s deadline, March 15th.
