[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does she draw well? If so, consider entering the Scholastic contest. https://www.artandwriting.org/ If she's up to it, she might put together enough stuff to attend National Portfolio Day. https://nationalportfolioday.org/ (I know she isn't interested in arts schools, but it might give her some good feedback about which if any of her drawings, etc. are good. )

Also take a look at the arts supplement pages of some college admissions offices. I think the Common App has a place to do one.Do not submit one unless her stuff really is good--which is why attending something like National Portfolio Day can help you figure out if is good.

Also enter some local art contests.

She's got some time, so if it's a sincere interest, have her take an art course at a local arts school. She's got time to do it next summer. If she's good, that can help her put together a portfolio or arts supplement and/or get a LOR from someone who can vouch that her stuff is good.

These are good but I’m thinking about what the OP said about how much time her DD spends on social media, and whether that could be maybe nuanced into an EC?

Does she have any interest in being an influencer, OP?[/quote]
