About This Activity
Organizations use poster contests to increase awareness of wildfire prevention among kids and adults. Poster contests can accept art of various formats, from photography to computer generated art or freehand. To help the process run smoothly, develop a theme, set deadlines for entries, specify size and format of the art, select age ranges, and develop criteria for judging. You may even want to award prizes to the top winners.
