What is possible when everyone feels like they belong? 
 
The 2027 Wassmuth Arts Awards is an invitation to design for belonging. A poem. A collage. Song lyrics. A sculpture. Whatever the medium, who do you wish our community could see more clearly, and with more compassion? 
 
This program is open to all K-12 Idaho students. We’ve even created a unique field trip to bring Design for Belonging into the arts! During their visit, students will explore examples of writing and art, think critically about the impact of belonging, and draft artworks that imagine a more just and joyful world for everyone.
