Combining Voices is a special literary competition and tour opportunity designed for students in grades 4 through 12. The program encourages participants to respond visually and verbally to selected paintings from the Morris Museum’s permanent collection. While students do not have to visit the museum to enter, experiencing the objects firsthand is highly recommended.
Student authors can submit either a short story (one thousand words or less) or a poem (between four and fifty lines) inspired by one of five preselected paintings from the Morris Museum’s permanent collection. One entry per student.
