COLUMBIA – Missouri students in grades 3-12 have until Oct. 31 to submit poster designs to commemorate Missouri’s bicentennial in 2021.

Selected posters will best interpret the theme of sharing Missouri’s stories, past, present and future.

Each student entry must be sponsored by an eligible institution. Complete guidelines and the online submission form can be found at missouri2021.org/bicentennial-poster.

Judges will select two designs from grades 3-6 and two from grades 7-12. Winners will receive $200 and will be recognized at the poster unveiling ceremony. The Bicentennial Commission is partnering with Hallmark Creative Marketing Studio to develop the selected posters into their final format.
