The KDOT Division of Aviation officials are encouraging young artists take their talents to new heights by participating in the 2018 International Aviation Art Contest, "Flight Into the Future.”
The contest, for which there is no entry fee, is for artists ages 6 to 17 years of age and is intended to encourage creative kids to imagine what the future of aviation will be.
What new innovations and ideas will shape the aviation of the future?
From hang gliders and parachutists, to drone pilots and citizen astronauts, the
only limit to the future of flight is the imagination of builders, dreamers and
pilots of today. It’s time to tap into your own imagination, grab your favorite
set of crayons, markers, pencils, or paints and create a poster for this year’s
Fédération Aéronautique Internationale’s theme, Flight into the Future. Show us
your vision of what can happen when people work together and follow their
passion for flight
Artists will compete in age groups:
- Those born between Jan. 1, 2008 and Dec. 31, 2011
- Jan. 1, 2004, and Dec. 31, 2007
- And Jan. 1, 2000, and Dec. 31, 2003
The top three state winners from each age group will have their work entered in the national competition. The three winners in each group at the national level will then have their entries considered in international competition.
State winners will receive a certificate and state recognition; national winners will receive certificates, ribbons and a framed reproduction of their artwork; and international winners will receive certificates and medals.
The deadline for entries, which cannot be computer-generated and must be submitted in 11¾-by-16½-inch format, is Jan. 19, 2018.
