Easterseals 2018 Seal Art Contest (International)

Deadline: July 7, 2017

This contest is for all ages!

From the EasterSeals Contest Website:

Objective: To secure beautiful original lily art work from which Easterseals can select six pieces that will become the 2018 Easterseals stamps.

Background: Easterseals, founded in 1919, is a non-profit organization which provides programs and services to help children and adults with disabilities achieve independence. Since 1934, Easterseals has been utilizing decorative stamps in order to raise money and create awareness of its programs. Over the years, the seals have transformed into the organization’s logo — the lily — and have come to be known as Easterseals. Today, nearly 10 million households nationwide receive the organization’s seals each spring.

Benefit: Participating in this program is a wonderful opportunity to gain national exposure for your creative talents, while at the same time helping Easterseals to raise funds to provide programs and services for people with disabilities.

Frequently Asked Questions
