At Home in America

Deadline for receipt of entries:
January 10th, 2021 at 5:00pm

The pandemic of 2020 has compelled us to spend more time at home than ever before. While this may be a source of comfort and safety, many of us are feeling increasingly isolated and more divided.

We’re experiencing virtual fatigue, depression, fear, uncertainty, widening inequality, and violence. It may be a time of intense creativity for some, challenging for other.

How does the word ‘home’ resonate with you? What does it mean to be living in America right now, and can we find hope and beauty in our home, our town, our country?
