UCLA Art Student and Alumni Opportunities

We are so excited here at Black Women for Wellness in collaboration with the Healthy Nail Collaborative to be launching our 2023 Art Contest: Reimagining a World Without Isms. As we grow as activists, artists, and visionaries, we are constantly using our ideas of a reimagined world to manifest a reality closer to a collective aspiration of hope, change, equity, and abundance. We are hoping that this art contest will be an opportunity for artists and creatives to tap into their inner vision of positive transformation. 

In a world where prejudice, discrimination, and stereotypes can create division, “Imagine a World Free of Isms” serves as a powerful and inspiring theme. As an artist, you’re invited to delve into a realm of unity, acceptance, and equality. Through art, let’s envision a world where these barriers no longer exist and share your unique perspective on what a world free of isms would look like.

Prizes: 3 Prizes awarded to top entries. 1st Place $500, 2nd Place $300, 3rd Place $200

Eligibility: Open to all ages. Artists under 18 must have parental consent.

This proactive initiative has been created for all creative students graduating this year in all art & design categories such as visual communication, film, fashion, textiles, interior, architecture, visual arts, contemporary craft, industrial & product design and more!

The contest challenges college students to produce public service announcements (PSAs) that creatively articulate why “Cash is Best” when helping people affected by international disasters. Cash contributions allow relief organizations to purchase exactly what is most urgently needed to help survivors.
