Celebrate Bristol Art and Photo Contest: Open for Submissions
We're hosting an art and photo contest, and we'd like students in Bristol to participate! As part of the upcoming national 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, and the City of Bristol’s local celebration through its Bristol America250 Committee, Wheeler Health and the City of Bristol invite all students in Bristol to celebrate this milestone and our amazing city by creating and sharing original artwork or photography featuring Bristol-focused places, events, people or iconic symbols. Watercolor and acrylic paintings, color pencil, crayon, or charcoal drawings, as well as all forms of photography, including cell phone images, are welcome!
Twelve winning images will be selected by a panel of community leaders and will appear in a 2026 "Celebrate Bristol" calendar, free while supplies last.
To submit artwork online, click here*.
If you wish to mail or drop off your submission, please refer to the parental/guardian permission form (second page of flyer), located here.
Submissions are due by May 30, 2025.
*One submission per student. Parental and guardian permission required for youth under the age of 18.
