There will be four divisions in Graphic Arts: grades 7-9, grade 10, grade 11, and grade 12. The Graphic Arts Contest Chair and the chairs for each category of Graphic Arts reserve the right to combine divisions or contests if there are too few entries.

Please be aware that the NJCL Graphic Arts Contest rules MAY be different than your state JCL contest rules. It is your responsibility as a participant in this contest to read and understand the NJCL rules. Questions about the contest rules may be directed to the chair of the Graphic Arts contest, Ms. Melissa Burgess at graphicarts@njcl.org.
