Fabric of Unionism Art Competition

2028 PSEA Fabric of Unionism Art Competition

PSEA's Fabric of Unionism Art Competition will return again for the 2028 school year. Here is what you need to know:

  • Two contests, one for members and one for their students. 
  • Prizes for each contest include a Grand Prize of $1000, a Second Prize of $500, and a Third Prize of $250. 

To increase awareness of the labor movement, its historical importance, and the need for it to grow in the future, PSEA holds the Jenifer J. DuBois Fabric of Unionism art competition every two years for PSEA members and students. 

Fabric of Unionism started in 1997 and was renamed in 2000 in memory of Jenifer J. DuBois, a founding member of the project. DuBois was a teacher and local leader in the Central Region.

Stay tuned here for details as we approach the next competition.

Prizes for each contest include a Grand Prize of $1000, a Second Prize of $500 and a Third Prize of $250.
