- 9. DMA Dallas Museumof Art | 1717 N. Harwood St. | Dallas TX 75201 Congratulations to ZTE USA INC for organizing the 2014 Children's Artwork Contest. It was a privilege to jury the exhibition that featured 23 works from children or grandchildren of employees currently working for ZTE USA INC. The artists exhibit strength and diversity within a broad range of styles and expressions and the themes expressed their ideas with clarity and elegance. The finished pieces are masterful! Having the opportunity to show their work of art at ZTE USA INC will inspire students to continue creating art from the heart. Art contests such as this one provide the students the honor to have their works shown in the main offices of ZTE and inspire young students to be active participants in the visual arts. Congratulations to the winners and everyone who entered the contest. Art teaches students creativity and acceptance of others. Children gain good morals such as sharing and being compassionate as well as respect for others when creating art. Students who participate in art contests experience self-confidence and seeing the final masterpiece in an exhibition enhances a children’s self-esteem. May this completion inspire more children to enter next year! I look forward to visiting with families at the Dallas Museum of Art. We invite you to attend programs at the museum and sign up for the free membership. María Teresa G. Pedroche Head of Community Engagement Dallas Museum of Art
