If you are a Queensland senior student and would love the exposure and experience of writing for a high-quality art magazine that is distributed nationally and internationally, it's time to get writing.

Write About Art is a new competition for Queensland state and non-state school senior students to submit their essays, interviews, or feature stories about a visual art or design exhibition, event, or idea you have seen in your local community.

Up to 30 students will be selected to have their work published in a full-colour anthology in a special issue of Eyeline Magazine, a leading visual art journal. Students will also work with established visual art and design industry mentors.

Registration for the project is open from 4 - 29 August 2008 and all students who register for Write About Art will get the chance to win a place in the Brisbane Writers Festival Word Play program.

Entries for Write About Art will close on Friday 17 October 2008.

For more information please register on the Learning Place website or send an email.
