Update

Thank you to everyone who submitted their artwork! We will notify and announce winners this fall.

Welcome, kids & teens!

How have you been visualizing Vermont lately? We want to hear from you! The Vermont Natural Resources Council (VNRC) invites Vermont youth to enter our Visualize Vermont Art Contest.

Submit original artwork for a chance to appear in our 2020 year-end brochure, which is sent to thousands of Vermonters who care about our natural environment. The deadline is August 30, 2020.

In addition to their artwork appearing in our brochure, winners and runners-up in each age category will receive a $50 or $25 gift certificate to a local bookstore, art supply store, or bakery of their choice!
