AMV Bird Art Exhibition and Festival
Audubon Miami Valley’s 11th Annual Bird Art Exhibition and Festival
Our Annual Bird Exhibition and Festival seeks to educate students on birds of the Midwest, birds of the Mississippi Flyway and how Climate Change is affecting bird populations and behaviors. In addition to artwork, there will be hands-on children’s activities, refreshments, and a naturalist from Hueston Woods State Park will have live birds.
We welcome young artists and birders to enter art works for the exhibition. Artists submitting work will receive a gift and all submissions will be exhibited.
Artwork Submission Rules:
Students are required to research one bird species (eating habits, habitats, vocalization, colors, size, nesting, etc.)
The submitted artwork can be either a realistic or graphic representation of the bird.
The artwork may be made using any 2-dimensional art material.
Those submitting artwork must be in grades K-12 and from a school district within a 30 mile radius of Oxford.
