fall 2023 Contest Theme

Music brings together communities

Every culture and civilization in the world has music, regardless of how isolated that culture may have been. When communities all around the world gather together to celebrate, mourn, dance, worship, or just to have fun, music becomes the medium through which people connect together. Even within our organization, we see students, parents, teachers, and volunteers coming together from all over different islands to celebrate and encourage each other's musical talents and achievements. Music is a unique language which brings together communities in special ways. For this year's cover design contest, share with us how music brings together your community.
