For the fifth year, the Massachusetts Association for Mental Health (MAMH) is hosting an art contest for middle and high school students across the Commonwealth. This event invites young people to creatively explore and express their perspectives on mental health. Entries are accepted in three categories: Traditional Art, Creative Writing, and Audio-Visual work. This year’s theme, “The Colors of Emotion,” encourages students to use abstract forms, ideas, and colors to convey different emotions and their personal journey toward mental well-being.

Individuals or teams are eligible to participate and submit original work (no AI submissions accepted) by Friday, May 2, 2025. MAMH will review each submission, with winners announced the week of May 12.
