The LaHarpe Veterans of Foreign Wars Auxiliary is part of a nationwide Patriotic Art Scholarship Contest.
High-schoolers are eligible to compete for a combined $31,000 in scholarships.
Students are asked to submit an original, two- or three-dimensional piece of art. The work must come from the current school year, and needs a teacher or supervising adult’s signature.
Judging will be done first at the local level, then at the sale and finally the national level.
The top eight finishers will be featured in the VFW Auxiliary Magazine and on the organization’s website.
Entries must be submitted to VFW Auxiliary, Willis J. Ross Memorial-LaHarpe No. 6324 by March 31. Additional information is available by contacting Maggie Barnett at (620) 380-1814 or mbarnett2847@gmail.com.
