The Daffodil Daze Art Contest is open to all Faulkner County kindergarten through 12th grade students.

“It’s time to invite your students to draw, paint or even photograph the beautiful daffodils that grace us with their presence every spring for the annual Daffodil Daze art contest. I am excited for this contest, to see young artists’ creativity and to celebrate the Daffodil Daze Committee’s beautification efforts on Faulkner County’s parks and trails,” says Daffodil Daze Art Contest Chairman Paulette Higginbotham.

• Entries must be submitted on papers no smaller than 8.5 by 11 inches and no larger than 11 by 17 inches in any art medium, including photos. The subject can be any variety of daffodil flower(s). This can be still life, landscape or narrative in nature. Encourage students to think creatively.

• Entries will be judged in three school divisions: elementary (kindergarten through fourth grade), middle school (fifth through eighth grade), and junior high/high school (ninth through 12th grade).

On the back of the entry, please list the student’s name, school, grade, teacher, phone number and email address.
