Students with art entries do not have to be members of a NOSB team to submit art. Artwork submitted must be original and created solely by the participating student during the 2000-2001 school year. No published, traced, or copied materials are allowed. To see examples of previous artwork, check out the 1999 and 2000 winners.
Art is juried by a panel made up of professional working artists.
Awards Best of Show 1st , 2nd , 3rd , and up to two honorable mentions in each category. Matted and shrink-wrapped works are acceptable, but must be equipped with a secure method for hanging. Pieces not ready for hanging will not be included in the art show and will be returned to the submitting school. All works must be dropped off or mailed in adequate packaging, and must have arrangements for pick-up or return shipping to the submitting school. Submitted works must arrive before the NOSB competition begins to allow time for hanging and judging.
