The Massachusetts Marine Educators and Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary have jointly sponsored an annual Marine Art/Poster Contest for several years. Since 2003, the winners and honorable mention selections have been posted on this web site.
Over the years there have been many wonderful submissions. The judges have had a hard time choosing among all of the talented young artists who have submitted work. We hope you enjoy the artwork posted on the pages linked below.
Contest judges will continue to be:
Robert Lyn Nelson -- internationally renowned marine artist
Dave Blanchette -- children's book illustrator and painter
Dennis Huston -- graphic artist (Creative Resources Group)
Richard Wheeler -- educator, naturalist, explorer and artist
