Are you a student or teacher with a passion for art, our ocean, and Great Lakes? Then break out your art supplies because we need YOUR help to raise awareness about marine debris! This year’s NOAA Marine Debris Program Art Contest is officially open, and students in grades K-8 from all U.S states and territories can submit their artwork now through November 30th that answers the questions:

  • How does marine debris impact the ocean and Great Lakes?

  • What are you doing to help prevent marine debris?

Send in your entry, and your artwork could be featured in our 2020 Marine Debris Calendar!

So put your pens, pencils, paints, and more to paper, and help us raise awareness about marine debris! For a complete list of contest rules, visit our website and download the student entry form and flyer.
