Congratulations to our 2021 Flag Design Winner!

Congratulations to Fay D.! Fay is an 8th Grade student at Academy 1 in Jersey City. Her Art Teacher is Martha Garcia. Fay’s design was chosen as a winner for AENJ's 2021 Youth Art Month Poster Design Contest! Our Theme was "Art Connects Us!” Fay’s design will be replicated on a virtual flag to represent New Jersey at NAEA 2021 as part of the CFAE YAM Museum. The design will also be displayed at the NJ State YAM Virtual Exhibit. Congratulations Fay and Martha!

Check in again tomorrow to see another winning design!
