~ Mesa, AZ - The Mesa Historic Preservation Board is encouraging young students to delve into the city's past through a Historical Essay and Visual Arts Contest. The competition, open to all fourth through twelfth graders regardless of their school type, aims to promote an appreciation for Mesa's history while honing students' writing and visual skills. Registration for the contest is currently open and will close on March 15.
The writing contest invites students to submit a historical essay or fictional story on one of three topics: historic athletes in Mesa, places they would like to see in Mesa 50 years from now, or what they would include in a time capsule from Mesa. Meanwhile, the visual arts contest allows students to showcase their talents in video production, sketching, painting, or building a 3D model based on one of three prompts: what makes Mesa important to them, a historic building or sign in Mesa, or a historic person/people of Mesa. All entries must demonstrate the student's research, original thinking, and writing or visual skills.
