My name is Paula Ludwig and I am the West Columbia Executive Assistant for the Atlantic Institute/South Carolina Dialogue Foundation. The Atlantic Institute is a non-profit organization. Its goal is to promote dialogue among people and issues that pertain to their lives. Atlantic Institute's mainstay is to engage in educational activities about social and cultural matters. One of the main activities of the foundation is our Atlantic Institute Creativity contest (formally our Art and Essay Contest) for Middle School and High School students in South Carolina. The contest theme for this year is "Embracing Diversity: How Can We Learn to Respect & Appreciate Different Cultures?" Middle and high-school students in the state of South Carolina are invited to submit original artwork, short films and/or essays. The Deadline is the beginning of March 2023. We would like to ask if you would be one of our Art judges for this year’s contest. If you honor us by accepting, we would contact you in March with dates in which you would come evaluate the Art work at at location to be determined in the Columbia area in March 2023. It will take approximately 2 hours to complete judging depending on how many entries we receive this year. Last year we did it on-line and will do again if necessary. You may research this contest at this link: http://atlanticinstitutesc.org/index.php/educational-dialogue/art-essay-contest Please feel free to get a hold of me if you have any questions and/or concerns. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Please send me the best contact information (e-mail, phone number) that would work for us to reach you if you are interested. Thank you for taking the time to consider this.

Description
We live in a global world that requires understanding, goodwill, and peace among all of humanity, and it is an important goal that we must work toward. The social media, internet, and other communication tools provide many different ways of interacting with others. People from different geographies and cultures are now in constant communication. While engaging with others in far distances, we are neglecting to communicate with the people we live with in our same community. The concept of friendship and neighborhood has changed dramatically. Someone could make a friend from the other part of world and culture through social media while not seeking to ask the next door neighbor's name.
Atlantic Institute was founded to bridge the deep gap of social interaction, to promote respecting differences, and to commit to the common good in the State of South Carolina.
The volunteers and members of Atlantic Institute want to put "the American Dream" into practice as in the words of Martin Luther King, Jr.: "The American Dream, the dream of men of all races, creeds, national backgrounds, living together as brothers." Volunteers and members of Atlantic Institute pursue happiness in the happiness of others through volunteerism and philanthropy. Atlantic Institute members and volunteers have been working diligently to fulfill the above mentioned principles in the State of South Carolina.
We sincerely hope that you enjoy coming to our many events that we put together and continue to help us share in dialogue.
Dr. Akif Aydin, President
