Community Values Art Contest

Submit an original piece of art for the seventh annual Community Values Art Contest, sponsored by the Office of Community Standards & Conflict Resolution.

This year's theme is "The Power of Empathy."  Empathy is defined as "the ability to understand and share the feelings of another."  What role does empathy play in resolving conflict?  How do you show empathy to others in the community? How does it feel when you are shown empathy?

Three winners will be chosen. First place will receive $300, second place will receive $200, and third place will receive $100.
