Annual Art Contest

The Arizona Treatment Court Conference includes the Annual Art Contest open to current or past treatment court participants.  Conference attendees will vote for their favorite entry at the conference and the top five winners will receive gift cards (Conference Favorite = $150, 1^st place = $125, 2^nd place = $100, 3^rd place = $75, Honorable Mention = $50).

The guidelines for the contest:

1. Each treatment court in your county can enter up to 5 art pieces (entries can be paintings, drawings, sculptures, poems). Any audio/visual entries (songs, videos) need to be discussed with the Art Contest Coordinator to sort out the equipment you will provide to display the art.
2. Each treatment court is responsible for vetting the art entries prior to submission and obtaining the artists’ permission to bring the art to the conference and display and photograph their art and first name.
3. Each entry is to align with the conference theme or with the theme of Recovery. You can access the conference theme via the AADCP website.
4. Each program will identify a staff member to physically deliver the art entries to the conference for display (we will have a designated area) and be responsible for taking the art entries back to their county after the conference ends. This also includes being responsible for managing (set up and oversight throughout the duration of the conference) of any equipment if an audio/visual piece is submitted.
5. The deadline for submissions is end of the day, Friday, March 29, 2024. Submissions after that date will not be accepted into this year’s contest.
6. Once you have identified your entries, submit a photo of the entry and a completed Release of Information Form.
7. Instructions, access to the ROI, and the email for submissions found at: Annual Art Contest – AADCP (azadcp.org)
