Get ready! A new season of discovery, growth, and purpose is coming. Mark your calendars and start preparing now! Registration opens early 2027.

Art Division and Children's Literature Entries:
Entries for the Art Division and the Children's Literature category must be personally delivered by the student or an adult representative to the designated Check-in table between 8:00 am and 8:30 am on the day of the festival. Rest assured, we handle each submission with the utmost care. However, the creator of the work assumes full liability for any damage that may occur during transportation, handling, or exhibition before, during, and after the festival.
Writing Division Entries:
Participants in all other categories of the Writing Division will receive an upload link from the Fine Arts Team prior to the festival. The only exception to this is the Children's Literature category (as mentioned above). Submissions for Writing Division should be uploaded to the provided link no later than 2 weeks before the festival date.
Writing entries are not returned to participants (except Children’s Literature). Writing entries (except Children’s Literature) must be submitted as one PDF attachment per category (inclusive of title page, summary [Book Chapter], entry).
Promo Video & Short Film Entries:
Entrants for Promo Video and Short Film categories will also receive an upload link from the Fine Arts Team prior to the festival. To ensure smooth viewing on the day of the event, submissions must be uploaded to the provided link at least 2 weeks before the festival. This allows our IT department to address any potential viewing issues beforehand. Please ensure both the entry and the credit line are uploaded.
Additionally, participants or their representatives are required to bring a backup of the submission on a USB flash drive (multiple file formats encouraged). This should be enclosed in a resealable bag, with the typed credit line placed inside. This ensures that we have a contingency plan in case of any unforeseen technical difficulties.
Music Production Entries:
Entrants for Music Production categories will also receive an upload link from the Fine Arts Team prior to the festival. To ensure smooth viewing on the day of the event, submissions must be uploaded to the provided link at least 2 weeks before the festival. The complete music project must be exported as a MP3, M4A or WAV file. Please ensure all documentation of project details are uploaded as well, including DAW used, genre, tracks, use of samples, non-participant musicians/vocalists and techniques. Participants or their representatives are still encouraged to bring a backup of the submission on a mobile device or laptop with a 3.5mm jack. This ensures that there is a contingency plan in case of any unforeseen technical difficulties.
