FLY CREEK - The New York Center for Agricultural Medicine and Health (NYCAMH) announced its annual Farm Safety Art Contest, open to students grades 5 through 12 in New York. Entries must be submitted by November 14 and contest winners will be announced in December.
By getting creative with the theme “Be Farm Smart: Stay Away from Moving Parts,” students are helping to make safety on the farm a priority for everyone. This year’s theme promotes safety when working around mechanical hazards such as moving parts, sharp objects, pinch points, crush points, wrap points, and more.
The contest has two format categories: print and digital. This allows participating artists to use the medium they prefer. Prizes will be awarded for first and second places in each category and in two grade brackets: 5th through 8th and 9th through 12th.
NYCAMH Educators are available to provide a no-cost safety training and demo for classes and youth groups about the contest theme. Teachers, group leaders, etc. can request an in-person or virtual lesson to engage their students on moving parts safety.
To request a lesson or learn more about the contest, email info@nycamh.org or call 607-547-6023 and ask for Allison. More information, including the contest entry form and guidelines, can be found by visiting nycamh.org/ArtContest.
