Art Contest Deadline Changed: Dec. 31

The Kakkis EveryLife Foundation has moved the deadline for its Rare Diseases art contest to allow for more entries. The new deadline for submissions is Thursday, December 31 (the original deadline was October 30).

The purpose of the contest is "To empower artists affected by Rare Diseases to express their unique struggle with a rare disease."

Six grand prizes will be given according to age group. Grand prize winners will receive a Visa Gold cash card and a flip video camera to record their story about being an artist affected by a rare disease. The artists' video stories will be posted on the Kakkis EveryLife Foundation's Website.
