The city’s Human Rights Commission will launch its Multimedia Scholarship Competition on Monday, Jan. 27.
Formerly known as the Multimedia Contest, the revamped annual program is an opportunity for students who live in and/or attend high school in Rockville to compete for tuition and/or book scholarships by responding to one of several prompts focused on human rights.
The prompts, applications and additional information will be posted beginning Monday, Jan. 27 at www.rockvillemd.gov/humanrights. The deadline for submissions is Friday, March 27.
Students may choose their desired medium, e.g., an essay, poem, song, painting, or other medium, through which to respond to the prompts. Submissions will be judged based on creativity, work quality and relevance.
First-, second-, and third-place winners will be announced at a Mayor and Council meeting and will be awarded up to $2,500 in scholarships.
