Calling all young artists!

We're proud to continue the 18th Annual Youth Art Contest. This year's theme is "North America's Natural Beauty," and submissions are being accepted until Wednesday, June 1, 2011.

Aspiring artists grades 1 through 12 (or equivalent) are encouraged to enter the contest - all entrants will receive a Ned Smith Center Signature Series patch. All art should feature wildlife or plants that are native to North America - any piece featuring non-native species will be disqualified.

Entries are categorized by the artist's age: grades 1-3, grades 4-6, grades 7-9 and grades 10-12. First, second, and third place winners and an honorable mention winner will be delected from each category. Certificates and ribbons will be awarded at the Ned Smith Center Nature and Arts Festival on July 30, 2011.

All entries must be submitted with an official entry form (available for download HERE) and complete contest rules are available on the Center's website.

Questions? Contact Beth Sanders, Director of Education at 717-692-3699.

Hope to see you at the Center soon!
