Art Submissions for the CGSUSA Annual Journal
The Journal committee invites reflections by children you work with on the mysteries they encounter in the atrium, whether these are voiced or written prayer or theological expression through art. We especially seek syntheses of the various themes they have received.
Please follow these guidelines for submitting children’s work or photographs for possible publication in 2024 Journal:
- For the best possible image of children’s art, please send the original. Otherwise, a photograph taken by a smartphone can have sufficient resolution if it is attached as file in its original size.
- Every submission must have the child’s name, age, and if pertinent, something the child said about his or her drawing. It can include an explanation of the circumstances that led to the child’s work.
- The child’s art should be free from all adult writing. Comments or explanations may be written on the permission form that accompanies the artwork.
- The permission form needs to include the child’s home address and signature of one of the child’s parents. The permission form can be found on the website of The United States Association of The Catechesis of the Good Shepherd at www.cgsusa.org
