Congratulations, you are now a 2025 Scholastic Art & Writing Awards National Winner!

The Alliance for Young Artists & Writers, the nonprofit organization that presents the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards, is pleased to present you with the award(s) listed on your dashboard in recognition of this achievement.

Nearly 110,000 teens entered more than 310,000 original works of art and writing to the 2025 Scholastic Art & Writing Awards. Your work was selected by some of the foremost leaders in the visual and literary arts for excellence in originality, skill, and the emergence of a personal voice or vision.

Since 1923, the Awards have celebrated teen artists and writers from across the country. You are now part of that legacy, joining the ranks of notable alumni including Tschabalala Self, Stephen King, Kay WalkingStick, Charles White, Joyce Carol Oates, Amanda Gorman, and Andy Warhol—all of whom won Scholastic Awards when they were teens.

We are proud to publish your work in our online galleries at artandwriting.org. Your name will also be listed in Yearbook 2025, a companion to our annual art and writing anthologies that feature selections of works by National Medalists.

Once again, congratulations. The Alliance for Young Artists & Writers, our supporters, and our partners are honored to celebrate your accomplishment.

Sincerely,

Christopher Wisniewski
