Have you heard of the Young American Creative Patriotic Art Contest?

Beginning in 1979 to recognize up-and-coming artists and encourage patriotism in youth, this contest comprises only two-dimensional entries along with a brief written statement about the art. Students in grades 9-12 by the March 31, 2026 deadline who are enrolled in a public, private or parochial high school or home study program in the United States, its territories and possessions; or dependents of U.S. military or civilian personnel in overseas schools compete to win National awards totaling $37,000. (Although U.S. citizenship is not required, students must be permanent residents or have applied for permanent resident status to become a U.S. citizen.)

We also offer a 3-Dimensional Patriotic Art Contest for students in grades 9-12 and the Illustrating America contest for students in grades K-8.

Learn more about each of these on our website: https://vfwauxiliary.org/scholarships/young-american-creative-patriotic-art-contest
