The Diversity Art Showcase spotlights youth art, a local professional artist, and the artwork of AFP members. The Showcase strives to portray the uniqueness, value, and diversity of people through art, photos, and poetry. We know there is a lot of talent among our members, so we’re calling all AFP member artists, poets, and photographers to participate. Members do not have to attend the conference to participate.

Types of Artwork Accepted: Painting, photography, drawings, sketches, collages, quilting, computer art, mixed media, and sculpture. Poetry submissions can include rhymed poetry, free verse, experimental and Haiku.
