PreK-12 Students Invited to Enter Space Foundation International Student Art Contest

Artwork to Depict Theme:?If I Were Going?

The Space Foundation invites students from around the world in PreK-12th grade (or the equivalent outside the U.S.) to enter its annual student art contest. The 2013 Space Foundation International Student Art Contest theme?If I Were Going??challenges students to imagine how they would personally experience space travel, exploration or settlement and then interpret that idea into an original work of visual art.

Teacher sponsorship is required, and teachers must submit artwork entries for their students.

The Space Foundation will give a total of 41 awards to 36 winners: first, second and third place in each of three media/art categories for each grade level/age group. One grand prize winner will be selected for each grade category from among the first place winners in that group for a total of four grand prizes. In addition, the SpaceFoundation will confer a Space Foundation Achievement Award, which will be selected by the Space Foundation graphic arts team from among all the winners.
