Albuquerque: Popejoy Schooltime Series Special News

Schooltime Calendar Drawing Contest Deadline is April 28th!




Dear Tabitha Orr,

It's not too late. Don't miss out on your opportunity to submit drawings to our annual calendar contest of this year's Schooltime shows. You can submit as many times as you wish. An entire class may be mailed in one envelope.





We invite your students to draw a picture of either of the following topics:

How I feel when I attend a show at Popejoy Hall
A "Thank you" drawing

It can be for any show they have seen in the Popejoy Schooltime Series but cannot be for the NMSO 4th or 5th grade concerts.

They may use any medium on an 8.5" X 11" piece of paper formatted horizontally.

On the back of each drawing we need written very legibly:

Teacher's Name, school, email address and phone number
School and Grade
Artist's Name
A very brief description (one sentence) of what their drawing expresses or means to them. It can be as simple as "I love Popejoy" or "It made me laugh and laugh", "I learned people in other cultures are just like me and that feels good", etc. Make sure the writing does not bleed through the drawing. You may put it on a separate piece of paper or label.
Please provide a return address on the envelope

We will select 14 winning drawings from this season's entrants to go into next season's Popejoy Hall calendar. These student winners will each receive four (4) tickets to a Popejoy Presents show in 08-09 and a copy of the calendar. We will also select Honorable Mention drawings and quotes.

Teachers/Educators whose classroom participates will go into a drawing for a pair of tickets to their choice of two shows selected from next season and every class gets a certificate.

PLEASE DO NOT FOLD THE PICTURES OR WE CANNOT USE THEM.



We hope this sounds like fun and it fits into the Fine Arts/Visual Arts and Language Arts/Expressive Language Writing Standards and Benchmarks too.

Thank you to all of you who have already sent in your masterpieces.
