Welcome to the Science Says SciArt Contest!
We want to feature your science art in our second annual science art competition! The intersection of science and art offers a unique opportunity for creative science communication.
To participate in our contest you must:
1. Submit one piece of work considered artistic and creative: beautiful microscopy, field photography, paintings, crafts, etc.
2. The work must be shareable on our social media platforms. We encourage you to include your handle or name in the submitted image.
3. You must live within California to be considered for prizes.
You may compete in one of three categories: UC Davis affiliate (student, staff, faculty), the local Davis/Sacramento area or California. *If out of state, you can submit your work for honorable mention to be featured on our social media and news release, although you can't be considered for prizes.
Winners will be determined by popular vote via a Google Form offered through our February newsletter, social media and website. Prizes vary depending on the contest selected. For entrants in either the UC Davis affiliate contest or local Davis/Sacramento contest, first prize will receive a cash prize of $75 and second place will receive a cash prize of $50. For entrants in the California contest, first place will receive a cash prize of $50.
