      <h3><hr /><span style="font-size&#58;1.5rem;">Theme -&#160;Arts builds Civic Engagement&#58; Involved in Arts, Involved in Life!</span></h3></span></div><div style="text-align&#58;left;"><span> 
      <p>This year's artwork theme is inspired by research highlighted by the National Endowment of the Arts in 2004&#58; Arts as Civic Engagement&#58;&#160; Involved in Arts, involved in Life (National Endowment for the Arts, 2004). In 2017, the Invine Foundation funded a study that had similar findings (Rabkin, 2017). There is a consistent correlation between arts participation and civic engagement, and experiences during adolescence are particularly impactful (Rabkin, 2017, p. 5). The arts build connections between people, evoking trust, and are crucial in rebuilding social capital - shared values and resources used towards achieving a common goal or set of goals. Students can speak to their experiences of arts participation and how they have engaged as volunteers in their communities around environmental, socio-economic, and political issues. Because the nature of the arts is a collaborative and expressive one, youth will be able to create expressive pieces about the ways they engage with their respective communities.<br></p>
