"Picture Compassion with “Art for Animals”

Now in its 29th year, NAVS’ Art for Animals contest has provided an opportunity for artists of all skills and ages to create images that inspire others to extend compassion, respect and justice to all animals. For our 2018 competition, we’re once again looking for fresh perspectives to illustrate NAVS’ mission of ending the exploitation of animals used in science, as well as messages of hope and compassion throughout the year.

For example, your artwork could appear in print and online messages from NAVS for Labor Day, the Fourth of July, World Week for Animals in Laboratories, or on greeting cards and in social media throughout the holiday season.

Submissions may be digitally-created artwork, as well as digital images of original paintings, illustrations or photographs. Artwork files may only be submitted via email, CD/DVD-ROM or portable flash drive. No physical artwork will be accepted.

Cash prizes will be given to First, Second and Third Place winners, one Youth (age 12 and under) winner, and one Best in Show winner.

The deadline for submissions is Friday, July 27, 2018. 

Companion animals fill our lives with friendship and devotion, while animals in the wild inspire us with their natural beauty. Whether paying tribute to an animal in your life or appreciating animals in the world around you, Art for Animals provides an opportunity to get creative and give a voice to those who cannot speak for themselves.

Please use the links at left to share this contest with all the artists in your life!
