No Name-Calling Week 2011 Creative Expression Contest

No Name-Calling Week (January 24 - 28, 2011) is a week of educational and art activities aimed at stopping name-calling and bullying in schools.

The Creative Expression Contest is an opportunity for students to submit essays, poetry, music, original artwork, or other pieces that convey their experiences and feelings about name-calling, and their ideas for putting a stop to verbal bullying in their schools and communities.

This year, they have added a new High School category to the contest for short-film submissions that focus on anti-LGBT name-calling and bullying in school. The goal is to have students working on their art pieces during the week as a way to learn about and deal with name-calling and bullying.

Entry deadline is February 28, 2011
