Landscapes
Depictions of trees (realistic, abstract, etc.)
Growth
Resilience
Family trees
Roots
Branches
Seasons

Literary Submissions
You may copy and paste your text into this submission form. You also could provide a link to the writing on another platform. BCTC will print off and display the text for you. If you prefer, you may print your own text and submit that as well, but we still need to review the content in this form.

Visual Art Submissions
This is a part virtual exhibition, therefore the highest quality image of your work should be provided. Please photograph your work using a clear resolution without any distracting backgrounds. If possible, have your work of art take up the entire image.
