Lake Michigan College and the MLK Celebration Committee seek original artwork submissions honoring Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., as well as choirs and choral groups to participate in the community-wide MLK Celebration Week, scheduled for Jan. 14-20, 2023.
Artistic reflections should center around this year’s theme of “Keep Moving Forward.” Artists of all ages and experience levels are encouraged to submit photos, video, audio, or written expressions by Friday, Dec. 16. Submissions may be in the form of visual artwork, dance, music, poetry, photography, short stories, spoken word, poetry, theatrical presentations, or other creative works.
Select pieces will be highlighted as part of MLK Celebration Week. Submitted works also will become part of a perpetual virtual Artistic Reflections gallery on LMC’s website. There is no cost for entry.
