**About the Competition**

Artists possess a powerful tool to evoke social change. Without uttering a single word, they can enlighten, educate and affect change around the world. Embracing Our Differences invites you to participate in creating a society where inclusion is embraced and individuality is celebrated.

Become a part of this change by submitting your original art to Embracing Our Differences and its annual international outdoor juried art exhibit.

**About the Exhibition**

Featuring 50 billboard-size images measuring 16 feet (4.88m) wide by 12.5 feet (3.81m) high accompanied by a thought-provoking quotations, each work of art and quotation is created by local, national and international artist or writer reflecting their interpretation of our theme "_embracing our differences_._"_

Since 2004, the exhibition has hosted more than 4.8 million visitors, in addition to 642,752 students via our education programs, for a very unique opportunity to experience the importance of inclusion, kindness, and respect in our lives.
