Enter the 2024 Postcard Art Contest

Enter for the chance to see your postcard design featured in our national Get Out The Vote campaign ahead of the 2024 Election! Submit your entry by June 14.

Elections have a huge impact on public school students and educators.

The candidates we elect determine how much funding schools and educators get, which books appear on our library shelves, how many students we can feed, and so much more.

Enter our contest and design a postcard that encourages people to vote early and support candidates who will fight for students, educators, and public schools.

Design a postcard that:

• Encourages people to vote early and features a message that centers public schools, educators, and/or students.
• Does not promote any particular candidate or political party, or disparage any person or group
• Uses all-original text and imagery (no previously published material, or trademarks other than NEA’s horizontal or square logo).
• Measures 4″ by 6″, is designed in landscape orientation, and contains 8 or fewer colors.
• Is blank on the reverse side, to allow for sender’s message, address and postage.
• All entries must be uploaded via this site (see below) by 5:00 p.m. ET on June 14, 2024. Scroll down to see the official entry form!
