The College of Fine Arts & Communications Announces #ExperienceCFAC 2023 Creative Works Contest Winners

CFAC Students Awarded Prizes
for their Experiential Learning

Six students from the College of Fine Arts and Communications (CFAC) won cash prizes for sharing their stories of experiential learning from internships, study abroad programs and more. The students answered the call to enhance inspired learning by working to make a difference in the world, both at home and abroad, through their involvement in humanitarian projects, theatre and arts events and non-profit organizations.

These winning essays and visual media submissions were entered into the College’s annual #ExperienceCFAC Creative Works Contest, which aims to highlight experiential learning that took place during the academic year.

Contest entries were reviewed by a council consisting of representatives from each academic area in the college and the Museum of Art. The council evaluated how each entry exemplified the benefits of experiential learning, engaged the reader or viewer and represented BYU’s mission of “enter to learn, go forth to serve.”

Although the contest for this year has concluded, students can continue to share experiential learning opportunities using the hashtag #ExperienceCFAC on social media channels or submitting a story on the college’s website.
