Once again, the Puget Sound Estuarium will be accepting art submissions for our Saving Endangered Species Art Contest! Washington is home to over 40 threatened or endangered plants and animals. Every year we bring awareness to these species and their ecological struggles on Endangered Species Day. Thousands of people around the world participate in Endangered Species Day by celebrating, learning about, and taking action to protect threatened and endangered species. We will be hosting our annual Saving Endangered Species Art Contest to encourage action and awareness in our community.
We will be accepting submissions at the Estuarium during open hours, 11am – 4pm on Saturdays and Sundays, and encourage everyone to look into local endangered species for their artistic inspiration. Entries from past years can be viewed on our Facebook page and previous years submissions are currently on display at the Estuarium.
All artwork will be displayed at the Estuarium from April through May, during which the public can submit their votes for the Estuarium’s grand prize and category winners! Artwork is due by April 24th. Artwork can be submitted digitally or physically at the Estuarium. Please submit your questions or artwork to our Education Coordinator at Education@pugetsoundestuarium,org.
