Fine Art Contest
Fine Art Contest
The LifeFirst Fine Art competition consists of two divisions, Junior High and Senior High. The contest promotes the celebration and dignity of life as students create an original piece of artwork that depicts their interpretation of this year’s theme:
When does human life begin?
Public, private, and homeschooled students residing in the United States are eligible to compete. Grades 6 – 8 may participate in the Junior High division. Students in grades 9 -12 compete in the Senior High division. Please scroll to the end of the page to see the 2024 winners. Submit questions to fineartcontest@lifefirst.org.
Sr. High: Best of Show-$1,000 2nd place-$500 5 Merit Awards-$50
Jr. High: Best of Show-$300 2nd place-$200 5 Merit Awards-$25
In addition to the individual awards to winning students, LifeFirst will supply a gift card to classroom teacher/adult group leaders if three or more students in a class/group participate in one of our contests. The gift cards are to host a classroom party at the conclusion of the contest. Through the classroom parties even students that did not participate directly in the contest can be drawn into the discussion of the value of life.
