During the dreary winter weeks of school life, the Philadelphia metropolitan area and Main Line students can conjure artwork and literary compositions commemorating the ancient Mediterranean world, in conjunction with their Latin and Greek studies.
For the February 2021 contests sponsored by The Philadelphia Classical Society and hosted by the Baldwin School in Bryn Mawr, K-12 students may register through their teachers or independently.
The categories for the 82nd Annual Latin Week contests include pencil and ink drawing, watercolor, acrylic and oil painting, computer drawing, sculpture, pottery, domestic and military life-size costumes, jewelry, models, storyboards, 3-D generated models, original Latin poetry and prose, English poetry and prose, and the special categories, notepad and t-shirt designs.
Directions and guidelines for all student entries are available on the Philadelphia Classical Society website (philadelphiaclassicalsociety.org).
