The Office of the State's Attorney for Baltimore City is hosting a student art contest called "Creative Justice" to encourage Baltimore high school students to express themselves as the new school year begins.  

The contest, hosted by the State's Attorney's External Affairs Division, is open to students in grades 9-12. The deadline is Tuesday, November 12. Judges will evaluate the entries based on their creativity, originality, relevance to the 'Creative Justice' theme, and overall quality. The entries can utilize any art medium the student wishes, but they must be submitted in JPEG or PNG format not exceeding 5MB.  

State's Attorney Bates will display the contest winners' artwork on the 9th floor of the Office of the State's Attorney, located in the Truist Building at 120 E. Baltimore Street.
