In Summer 2020, the Vermont Natural Resources Council (VNRC) invited Vermont youth to enter our Visualize Vermont Art Contest. We wanted to see what kids and teens love most about Vermont. We also wanted to get a sense of how they are envisioning our future in these uncertain times.

We were blown away by the submissions we received, from kids aged 4 through 15, from Swanton to Bomoseen and in between. In addition to appearing in VNRC’s 2020 year-end brochure or materials, one winner and one runner-up in each age category won a gift certificate to an art supply store, bookstore, or bakery of their choice.
