Art & Science Competition
We are excited to announce that registration is now open for the 2026 Art & Science Competition!
The competition will be held virtually on March 12th, 2026. If you are a student interested in competing or a teacher that would like to register their class, please complete the registration form below.
For this new 2026 event, students can decide to compete in either our art or science categories. Students have the choice to explore their wetlands using their artistic skills, or they can delve into research to analyze a real-life case study.
Students will compete in teams of two or three. All teams must attend a mandatory virtual workshop. On Competition Day, each team will be given a 10-minute slot to orally present their art project or scientific recommendations to the judges (via Microsoft Teams). Presentations should be no longer than 7 minutes, and judges will have up to 3 minutes afterwards to ask questions. Teams have the option to pick only one member to present to the judges.
