Event Details
Do you love to do art? Does the beauty of wildlife fascinate you? Would you like to see your artwork on a national stamp? Each year the U.S Fish and Wildlife Service holds a Junior Duck Stamp Competition where youth are encouraged to submit their own original duck artwork, as well as an adult competition. Participants in this class will have the opportunity to learn artistic skills from local artist, Nicole Gagner https://nicolegagner.wixsite.com/artwork and start on their very own duck artwork. Nicole will be guiding a lesson on drawing ducks during this class, with hopes that participants might enter their masterpiece into the ND Jr. Duck competition (or adult National Competition for those eligible).
