Entries for the 2015 International Aviation Art Contest are being accepted for children between the ages of 6 to 17.
Sponsored by several national and international organizations and supported by the Missouri Department of Transportation, the contest is designed to help youth explore aeronautics, engineering and science as they illustrate the theme, "World Air Games."
Entries are judged in three age classes for creative use of the theme. Entries from Missouri youth will be evaluated by MoDOT employees. The winners will advance to national and possible international levels of the contest.
All artwork for the state competition must be postmarked by Jan. 23. Missouri students submitting artwork should mail it to the Missouri Department of Transportation, Attn: Teresa Hall, PO Box 270, Jefferson City, MO 65102.
