Reflections Program: Reflections Overview

PTA Reflections

The Reflections Program was started in 1969 by Mary Lou Anderson, who served as Colorado PTA president at the time. In its more than 30-year history, the program has encouraged millions of students across the nation and in American schools overseas to create works of art. The program offers students the opportunity to create works of art for fun and recognition. Students in preschool through grade 12 are encouraged to create and submit works of art in four areas: literature, musical composition, photography, and the visual arts (which includes art forms such as drawing, painting, print making, and collage).
