Open to All UConn Students
Write a song, design a poster, make a .gif or meme, or shoot a short video about the importance of wearing a mask to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, then submit your entry to sfa-marketing@uconn.edu. Your idea could win a CASH PRIZE!
Who May Enter:
All UConn School of Fine Arts undergraduate students are invited to participate either as individual entrants, or in collaboration with students from other colleges across campus. All teams that enter must have one SFA student on the team. One prize will be given per winning team or individual.
(Example: A team of students from SFA, CLAS, and NEAG may enter together, but a CLAS and NEAG student could not enter without an SFA student on the team. SFA students may enter by themselves.)
