Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Hold both Power and Home buttons for 10 seconds until your device restarts, so you will be able to use it again.
The Power button is the one that you use to put your iPad in sleep mode (at the top of the iPad), and the Home button is at the bottom of the screen

Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds or so and see if it reboots.

Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Hold Sleep and Home buttons for 10 seconds until your iPad restarts, so you will be able to use the iPad again. Finally, open Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup to make a manual backup

Did you already try to reset the iPad by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again?
You will not lose data doing a reset, but it can clear some glitches.
