Art Contest

About the Contest

The International Aviation Art Contest, sponsored by Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (FAI), is held each year to encourage young people to demonstrate the importance of aviation through their art and to motivate them to become more familiar with and participate in aeronautics, engineering and science. The U.S. portion of the contest is sponsored by the National Aeronautic Association (NAA), the National Association of State Aviation Officials (NASAO), and Embry-Riddle Aeronautic University (ERAU). A committee selects the United States national contest winners and their art is forwarded to FAI for further judging to determine international winners.

Art work is submitted ONLY through participating State Aviation Offices and local schools (not all states participate).  To find out if your state participates, click here and select Members from left column and select your state to find the Aviation Office contact information or check with your school.

Deadline for artwork submissions is January 15.
