For best results, students should not clutter
their posters with too many pictures, words or
designs that are difficult to see or read.
PLEASE NO TITLES OR SLOGANS ON THE ARTWORK.
One entry per student! Group projects cannot be accepted.
Please tape — NOT GLUE — an original or photocopied ENTRY FORM on the back of each poster. Additional entry forms can be printed by downloading the contest flyer.
Please use manila drawing paper, white construction
paper, art board or plain bond paper. Crayons, felt pens,
poster paints, watercolors or grease pencils should be used.
Avoid colored pencils and thin-lined, light-colored
artwork — COLORFUL posters usually reproduce best.
Pencil artwork does not reproduce.
