"The Director’s Project is a one-week drawing competition with awards.
The ‘fierce urgency of Now’ is a phrase from Martin Luther King Jr.’s ‘March on Washington’ speech in 1963. In this paradoxical pandemic moment, we are physically isolated yet feeling that urgency to join our voices together. This year’s Director’s Project calls upon you to engage with the language of drawing as part of a collective conversation in fraught times, as a way of “staying with the trouble.” Taken together, these drawings can be an embodiment of the current spirit of our school."
