Arts Queensland is searching for Queensland senior students who want to write about visual art, craft and design.
Write About Art is a competition for senior students to submit essays, interviews or feature stories about a visual art, craft or design exhibition, artist or event they have seen.
Up to 30 students will be mentored by professional arts writers in a full-day workshop in Brisbane in September, followed by online mentoring through the Learning Place.
Eyeline Publishing, which produces Queensland's leading visual arts journal Eyeline, will publish students' finished works in a full-colour magazine.Teachers can register their students' interest through the Learning Place until July 24. Students must submit their essays through the Learning Place by July 31.
More information is available from the Arts Queensland website 
To register and upload essays, head to the Learning Place website or send an email to writeaboutart@arts.qld.gov.au
