The annual Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) Student Art Contest has begun accepting individual entries from all North Texas students through Wednesday, March 22, 2023. The theme of this year’s contest is “Go Here. Go There. Go Everywhere!”
DART Asks Young Artists: Where Can DART Take You?
By bus, train or GoLink, DART puts your world within reach. Just choose your direction, and let the adventure begin! The DART Student Art Contest is your chance to show us all the places (literally and otherwise!) that DART takes you. It’s about seeing new places and meeting new faces. Who knows how far you’ll go. Get on board and get on your way!
Kindergarten through 12th grade students throughout North Texas will compete for the opportunity to have their artwork featured on DART rail stations, buses and inside trains. Winner’s artwork will also be displayed at the Dallas Museum of Art, Love Field Airport, and on DART’s website, DART.org.
In addition, this year, DART will reward the five teachers who submit the largest number of qualified entries with a $100 gift card.
The 2023 DART Student Art Contest thanks its community partners the Dallas Museum of Art, Half Price Books, the Perot Museum of Nature and Science, the Dallas Zoo, the Dallas Children’s Aquarium, the Dallas Arboretum, and Toyota, as well as our media partners the Advocate, Al Día, the Dallas Morning News, DFW Child, KERA, Local Profile, NBC 5, Plano Magazine and Telemundo 39.
