    A Message from George Rodrigue

    Today's art students embrace technology as an artistic tool and pursue careers accordingly.

    Three-D models in movies such as Toy Story and within video games such as World of Warcraft reach millions of people and affect our world.

    I challenge educators and business leaders to join GRFA in embracing the digital arts as a viable industry for Louisiana and an important addition to our state's educational programming.


    Theme: Louisiana's Bicentennial

    Two hundred years after becoming a state, Louisiana remains one of the most unique in the union. The state's rich heritage is evident throughout our history in politics, the culinary and visual arts, music, many festivals, traditions and more.

    GRFA, LTC and LDGI challenge high school juniors and seniors to create an original 3D fully rendered model that honors Louisiana and captures those traits that set Louisiana apart from other states.

    Make is serious, funny, or edgy, as long as it is uniquely Louisiana!
