I am in 6th grade at the Ithaca Waldorf School. I think it is extremely important for all people to vote. It makes a big difference. Everyone’s voice should be heard!

I am a 5th grade student, and I would like to share a painting I made with 3 simple words that can be very powerful; vote for justice. I enjoy art, and love to enter competitions like this one.

Hi! I was inspired to do the artwork I did, something similar to me, by my interest in drawing faces. I picture a protest and what it would be like voting at age 16. I am competitive, but not toooooooooooo much. May the one who deserves it be chosen!

I love art. Art helps me escape and is a fun thing to do. My design was inspired by my family. You might be asking yourself, “Why your family?” Well that is easy to answer – my family is always voting. They say one vote makes a huge difference.

What inspired my idea is the fact that minorities are being treated unfairly and it’s to encourage you to vote to help change that even if you aren’t affected by not voting others are. Also a big part is blm and how unfair black people like me are being treated and killed by law enforcement. It’s not fair and you should try and help you know.

I am a student at Belle Sherman Elementary. I wanted to encourage people to vote because it is a duty for everyone who can. I also am looking forward to vote in presidential elections.

I like to draw, paint, and dance. What inspired me to do this is that I think everyone should be able to have a voice and speak up for what’s right.

Katiana

Age 11
Philadelphia, PA

I’m a totally normal child, born in Arecibo, Puerto Rico; living in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I’m the middle one, from two other sisters. My Dad passed away when I was only three days born, since I was 7 months old my mom moved to Philadelphia and meet my stepdad who’s been awesome and really good to my big sister and I. In 2015 my little sister came to our lives. I’ll always remember, since I was a smaller kid, I’ve always loved to draw. Drawing is my best way to express my feelings, I’m not really good at talking, and drawing I can express whatever I want. I got inspired to enter this contest, not to win, but to motivate all the adults to raise their voices for all of us, the children and vote for our future. The first motivation is the currents events happening, we truly need a good leader, our lives have to be in goods hands, and only voting we can achieve that.
