What makes the State of Michigan Strong? This is the theme for Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s 2023 State of the State program.
Gov. Whitmer is encouraging students from across the state, grades K-12, to design a creative cover for the new program. Students may use a variety of mediums such as markers, paints, crayons or other tools to create the cover.
Designs must be submitted by 11:59 PM on Sunday, January 15th. The student who submits the winning art design will receive a gift box from Cherry Republic.
“I believe what makes Michigan strong is the people that live here, and I am delighted to share a student’s artwork that highlights what they see as Michigan’s strengths,” says Governor Whitmer.
On Wednesday, January 25th, at 7 p.m, Gov. Whitmer will give the 2023 State of the State address on her plans to tackle challenges facing Michigan residents.
