Every student is invited to submit their original artwork for a chance to be featured on the official MVE spirit shirt of the year!

How It Works

  1. Student Submission – Students create and submit their original MVE-themed designs in art class.
  2. Expert Judging – Our PTA, Ms. Giadone, and local print shop partner Eon Screen Print select the top three designs that can be best converted into a wearable t-shirt.
  3. Community Voting – The MVE community votes for their favorite design from the finalists.
