Every year The Alexandria Gazette dedicates one issue entirely to the artwork of the children in the Alexandria community. Teachers can submit their students’ artwork for a chance to be published in the annual children and teens issue of The Alexandria Gazette.
Teachers are asked to submit their students’ artwork, essays, creative writing, opinion pieces, short stories and photographs no later than noon on Friday, December 4.
All submissions must be submitted digitally through email to smauren@connectionnewspapers.com or by mailing a CD to: The Alexandria Gazette Packet, 1606 King Street, Alexandria, VA 22314.
Submissions must include the child’s full name, school, grade and/or age.
Submission suggestions:
- Short stories, poetry, essays, class-wide prompt writings.
- Opinion pieces about traffic, sports, food, video games, toys, trends, etc.
Be sure to take a clear photo of any artwork.
The issue will be published in the last week of December and will include artwork from every school that participates.
