In recognition of National Agriculture Week (National Agriculture Day, March 19, 2013), WIFE (Montana Women Involved in Farm Economics) invites Montana’s school district children to express their ideas on farm life by participating in WIFE’s twenty-seventh statewide calendar art contest. Winning entries grades K through 8th will be awarded a cash prize at the 1st($30), 2nd($20), and 3rd($10), levels in each grade’s division. Two Honorable Mention places in each grade will be awarded certificates. Only 25 pictures can be used on the calendar. Those winners who pictures are used will also receive a calendar.
All entries are to be done horizontally on 8 ½ x 11 inch white paper with dark, black lead pencil or black ink (no markers please). Any aspect of agriculture that is of interest to the students may be drawn. Any depiction of alcohol or tobacco will no be accepted. Student’s name, grade, school, address, town, zip, should be clearly printed in a corner on the back of their picture.
No entries can be returned, but WIFE may display or use student’s artwork for various WIFE projects throughout the state. Entries must be postmarked on or before April 15, 2013.
Artwork will be judged on the basis of originality.
