Arts4All Florida’s Student of the Month Recognition Program strives to increase public awareness of the impact arts make on students with disabilities. Students who participate in the arts develop creativity, have increased self-confidence, understand teamwork, have increased language and math skills, and are generally more engaged.
We invite you to recognize students with disabilities aged 5-22 who exemplify outstanding work in and through the arts. The student artist may be accomplished in the visual arts, music, dance, theater, or literary arts, or merely demonstrate amazing personal achievement and leadership through one of the art forms. Each month Arts4All Florida will select one student. Applications are accepted from September 5, 2024 through May 3, 2025.
The winning students will be featured on the Arts4All Florida website and in our monthly e-newsletter. All winners will receive a personalized award presented at an awards ceremony of choice and a $50 Amazon gift card to both the winning student and the nominating teacher.
