Now Accepting Entries for the 2020 Marine Endangered Species Art Contest

2019 Winning Entry

This painting of Atlantic salmon won the 2019 Endangered Species Art Contest, 9-12 age group, for special International Year of the Salmon category.

Contest for Kids K-12: Entries Due Friday, April 17

Teachers, celebrate Endangered Species Day (May 15) by having your classroom participate in the 2020 Marine Endangered Species Art Contest!

Endangered and threatened species need our help. Students’ artwork will showcase their knowledge and commitment to protecting these animals. We invite Massachusetts schools as well as schools from anywhere in the U.S. and beyond to submit entries.

Artwork should highlight one or more marine endangered or threatened species from the New England/Mid-Atlantic region. Text highlighting why the animals are important and what people can do to protect them may also be included. Younger students, in grades K-2, who may not understand the threats to endangered species (i.e., pollution, fishing, etc.) are encouraged to portray the animals in their natural habitat instead.
