INNOVATE WORLDWIDE!
T-shirt Art Contest

Students in grades K -12 are cordially invited to create
the official 2022 INNOVATE WORLDWIDE themed artwork!

TAERSIF is looking for:
“Where STEM Meets Innovation”

How do you envision improving the world through:

  • Innovation
  • Discovery
  • Exploration
  • Research
  • Creative Thinking
  • Problem Solving

 

Need help getting started?

When you think of the Planet Earth, what thoughts come to mind?  Make notes of the most important and challenging issues to you of the past, present or future that pertain to our home and place in the universe. 

What needs to be done to keep the world healthy and to meet the needs of all things living on land, in the seas and in the air? Think of how to best manage our natural resources and what changes have occurred that require everyone’s attention. 

Exploration has changed from sailing the seas in search of new lands to scientific discoveries of the unseen physical properties of the living and nonliving (inert).  How have technologies helped us and what can we do to advance them? 

Now ask yourself: ‘How can you share your ideas through art?”
