Creative reflection contest submissions
Every year, Sheridan students are invited to submit a creative reflection - through visual art, multimedia, or creative writing - that reflects on Black history and excellence as an opportunity to share and celebrate the diverse voices in our community. This year, we invite you to share your reflection on our 2026 focus:
Becoming Blue Prints of Legacy
This reflection offers students the opportunity to express and share all aspects of their diverse Black experiences: the joy, the triumph, the resilience, and powerful stories that shape both their personal and collective journey in this world.
HERE ARE THE 2026 BHM 2026 CREATIVE REFLECTION SUBMISSIONS
Winners will be selected in April 2026 by the Black Excellence Steering Committee.
