Idaho Students Invited to Celebrate the Season with 2024 Holiday Card Contest

October 1, 2024

(Idaho State) Idaho students are invited to get into the holiday spirit and put their most creative artwork on display with the Idaho Department of Education’s 2024 Holiday Card Contest. The contest is open to all K – 12 students and will be judged in a K – 6 division and a 7 – 12 division.

Winning entries from each grade level will be selected for display on the Idaho Department of Education website. From that group, two overall winners will be selected, one from each division, for use on the Idaho Department of Education’s official holiday cards. Winning artists will receive cards for their own personal use this holiday season.

“There’s a chill in the air and it’s time to look towards the holidays with this year’s card contest,” said Superintendent of Public Instruction Debbie Critchfield. “This really is a highlight of the year for me and my staff, and I’m looking forward to seeing what Idaho’s talented young artists create this year.”

The contest is open to all K – 12 public and charter school students. Drawings should reflect winter or holiday scenes and must not include copyrighted images. All submissions must be 8.5” x 11” and should be hand-drawn in either vertical or horizontal orientation. Digital submissions must be scanned and submitted as a PDF. Photography, video or digitally-created entries will not be accepted.

Mailed entries should be addressed to the Idaho Department of Education, Attn: Taylor Baggerly, P.O. Box 83720, Boise 83720-0027.

Students are permitted to create their submissions using watercolors, colored paper, markers, crayons or a combination thereof. Pencil drawings and fabric designs are not suitable for the card printing process.

Submissions must be received or postmarked by Friday, November 8.
