 Virginia Lottery’s 2025 Thank a Teacher Art Contest

There are only a few weeks left for students in your school district to enter the Virginia Lottery’s 2025 Thank a Teacher Art Contest. Help us spread the word.Each year, through the Thank a Teacher campaign, the Virginia Lottery encourages students, parents and the general public to send thank-you notes to Virginia’s deserving public school teachers during Teacher Appreciation Week. For the last seven years, these thank-you notes have featured custom artwork designed by Virginia’s public school students through the Thank a Teacher Art Contest. We are once again looking for three students to have their artwork featured on thousands of thank-you notes distributed during Teacher Appreciation Week the first full week of May.The contest is open to all K-12 students (not just art students!) enrolled in one of Virginia’s public schools.Looking for inspiration for your student to get started? Check out some of the top artwork from last year’s art contest!
One top-prize winner will be selected from each level: elementary school, middle school and high school. The three winners will not only get to see their artwork featured on the 2025 thank-you notes, they’ll also receive a $200 Visa® gift card plus $2,000 in supplies for their school’s art department from the Lottery and our valuable partners at The Supply Room.
Submissions will be accepted now through February 3, 2025. For more information about the Thank a Teacher Art Contest, including official rules, eligibility and entry requirements, visit www.ThankaTeacherVA.com.
