Quotes
Virginia McEnerney, Executive Director of the Alliance for Young Artists & Writers: "For 96 years, the Awards have recognized the creative promise of individuals like Andy Warhol, Kay WalkingStick, Sylvia Plath, Stephen King, Richard Avedon, and Zac Posen, and today we honor more than 2,700 teens as they receive national recognition in the 2019 Scholastic Art & Writing Awards. These students join a legacy of teens facilitating important dialogue through their art and writing, and we celebrate their creativity and innovation as the next generation of great American artists and writers."
Lucianne Walkowicz, noted astronomer, multimedia artist, former chair of Astrobiology at the Library of Congress, and 2019 Scholastic Art & Writing Awards Alumni Achievement Award Recipient: "I am honored to be receiving this year's Alumni Achievement Award from the Alliance for Young Artists & Writers. It was my Scholastic Art & Writing Award that inspired me to begin combining my two passions; infusing my art into my career in the sciences, and vice versa. The Awards changed the trajectory of my life's work, and I'm so excited to see how this national recognition impacts these unbelievably talented students for years to come."

Judging Criteria
All art and writing submissions are blindly judged based on the same three criteria that have been in place since the program's founding: originality, technical skill, and emergence of personal vision or voice. Student works are first adjudicated regionally through more than 100 local Affiliates of the Alliance. Students receiving Gold Keys, Silver Keys, Honorable Mentions, or American Visions & Voices Nominations are celebrated within their communities through exhibitions and ceremonies. Gold Key works are then judged nationally by an impressive panel of creative-industry experts to receive Gold, Silver, American Visions & Voices, and Gold or Silver with Distinction Portfolio medals.
