The Junior Duck Stamp art competition is just around the corner, and we coordinate the Idaho contest. The purpose of this program is to teach conservation through the arts; students are invited to explore the natural world and learn more about waterfowl identification and wetland habitat by creating their very own art depicting a duck, goose, or swan. Ribbons will be awarded for 25 artists in each age category (Kindergarten-3rd grade, grades 4-6, grades 7-9, grades 10-12). Basic contest guidelines are listed below. For more details, please see contest information or respond to this email with any questions!  

Basic contest guidelines: 

  • Students in kindergarten through 12th grade are eligible. 
  • Home school and independent entries are welcome.  
  • Entries must be original, hand-drawn creations and may not be traced or copied from photographs or other artists’ works.  
  • Must be a live portrayal of a native North American waterfowl – species are listed in the annual brochure.  
  • Art must be 9×12 inches, horizontal, no border around image, and less than 1/4” thick.  
  • May be multi-color, black and white, or a single color; rendered in ink, paint, pastel, crayon, or pencil. Techniques may include scratching board, airbrush, linoleum printing, paper collage, dry brush, crosshatch, pointillism, etc.  
  • No lettering, words, signatures, or initials on the design.
