2026 Poster Contest Entries Due June 30

Written by Shannon Wehinger on June 5, 2026. Posted in Awards

The National Association of Conservation Districts (NACD) poster contest, open to students in grades K-12, offers young people an opportunity to express their views on natural resource issues through art. The NACD theme for 2026 is “Soil: Where it All Begins.”

The deadline to submit posters to PACD for the 2026 NACD Poster Contest state-level judging is June 30, 2026.

No photos of posters will be accepted, only clear, scanned PDF files. Districts should provide the files, correctly scanned and named, to PACD. If you don’t have a large scanner, a cell phone works too. If you aren’t sure how to do this, search online for instructions for scanning to PDF using a cell phone without an app.
