2026 Theme:
"ROOTS"

This year's theme is inspired by the roots that build our identities. Whether it's family, friends, culture, or something else, we all have experiences "rooted" in our identity. We hope this theme inspires you to find your roots and get creative!

The theme is general and meant to inspire! Feel free to submit any work. You can fit your statement into the theme; however, this is not a requirement!
