Donate Life Northwest Art Contest

Brush off your brushes, grab some mod podge, and let your inner artist shine! The Donate Life Northwest Art Contest is designed to showcase your perspective on donation and transplantation, and to better understand what it means to you and your community. Whether it is a tribute to a donor family member who has passed, or a reflection of your joy at receiving a life-saving organ, we hope that beautiful works of art can capture a part of the experience.

We encourage creativity! Use mixed media, found supplies. We ask that the final art be easily photographed and be smaller than poster size (approx. 24” x 36”).

The art contest will launch in March 2024 and run through May 19, 2024. At the summer Block Party, the winner will be announced, along with people’s choice voting. The winning artwork will be featured in a DLNW digital campaign, and receive a $200 gift card. The people’s choice winner will receive a $100 gift card.

The deadline for art to be received by Donate Life Northwest is Sunday, May 19, 2024. Each submission must have a completed submission form in order to be considered.
