🚨 Action Alert Reminder: The House may have pulled its planned vote, but the legislation remains active, and the fight is NOT over. We urge every advocate to continue to contact their representatives and senators to tell them to reject Section 108 and find another way to fund veterans’ priorities.

We are counting down the National winners of our three art contests starting on Saturday, July 18. Each day leading up to National Convention, we will share National award-winning works from the Young American Creative Patriotic Art Contest, 3-Dimensional Patriotic Art Contest and Illustrating America, concluding with the National first-place winners of both the Young American Creative Patriotic Art Contest and 3-Dimensional Patriotic Art Contest on July 25.

As always, we remind visitors to our Facebook and Instagram pages to remember that these works of art were created by talented students in grades K-12. While we welcome positive feedback and post sharing, we reserve the right to delete any comments that are political/partisan or unkind. Hate speech will not be tolerated.

We hope you will join us in recognizing and celebrating the incredible talent of these young artists. Thank you for your support of the Young American Creative Patriotic Art Contest, 3-Dimensional Patriotic Art Contest and Illustrating America!
