The arts are for anyone! No matter your grade level or interest, there is something for you to experience through the 4-H Arts. The goal of the 4-H Day in the Arts Contest is to give youth an opportunity to express their creativity, while also developing skills in a supportive and encouraging environment. There is no cost to participate, and 4-H membership is not required.

The 4-H Day in the Arts Contest is open to youth in 5K through one year past high school. The contest will have nine divisions – vocal, instrumental, dance, drama, speaking, demonstration, arts & crafts, photography, and Cloverbuds (for grades 5K-2 only). Entries are limited to a total of 5 entries, with a limit of 2 entries per division.

This year the contest will be virtual, with all entries submitted digitally by Sunday, March 7, 2021, at this link: http://bit.ly/3aCmeEr. All performances and exhibits must have been performed, completed or taken after October 1, 2020. Each submission will be evaluated and provided written constructive feedback and a certificate of participation.

There will also be a virtual celebration and public viewing of all the art submissions on Sunday, March 21st, in which youth are welcome to invite friends and family to participate.
