BISMARCK, N.D. - North Dakota teens, it's time to let your creativity shine. Submissions are now being accepted for the 2025 "Teen Takeover," a unique opportunity for teens across the state to showcase their talents and perspectives. North Dakota residents between the ages of 13 and 18 are invited to submit an original work interpreting the theme "What North Dakota Means to Me."

This year's theme encourages participants to reflect on their connection to the state and express what makes North Dakota special to them. Whether through 2D visual art or written creative expression, teens are encouraged to bring their unique voices and visions to life. The "Teen Takeover" is more than just a competition; it's a celebration of the vibrant and diverse youth of North Dakota.

The deadline for submissions is Dec. 1, 2024. Finalists' work will be exhibited in spring 2025 at the North Dakota Heritage Center & State Museum. To learn how to submit your work and to view the full guidelines, please visit statemuseum.nd.gov/teen-takeover.
