8th Annual Student Art Contest

Hey, students! Time to get started on your works of art in preparation for our annual student art contest.

This year’s theme is All Things Wisconsin! This could mean seasons, things to do, places to see, people of Wisconsin, etc. Show us what comes to mind when you think of Wisconsin!

Monetary prizes will be awarded to 11 individual student winners, and the “Loeymae Lange Memorial Best in Show Award” will be given to one student artist whose art exemplifies originality, expression, use of artistic elements, principals of design, overall presentation of artwork, and message.

We will be accepting art from April 1–May 5, 2023. More information about the art contest, including contest rules, eligibility, and art entry information will be available on our Foundation website in the coming weeks.

Sponsored by WEA Member Benefits and WEA Member Benefits Foundation.
