2018 International Aviation Art Contest
The New Hampshire Department of Transportation participated in the 2018 International Aviation Art Contest.
The Bureau of Aeronautics coordinated this year’s State contest along with the sponsorship of the National Association of State Aviation Officials (NASAO). The Federation Aeronautique Internationale (FAI) sponsored the international phase, to motivate and encourage young people of FAI member nations to become more familiar with and participate in space, aeronautics, engineering and science.
The 2018 theme was “Flight Into the Future” and artwork was judged, at least in part, for its creative use of that theme. There were 3 categories for the 2018 contest: Group I – date of birth between January 1, 2008 and December 31, 2011; Group II - date of birth between January 1, 2004 and December 31, 2007 and Group III – date of birth between January 1, 2000 and December 31, 2003. The State Winners were: Group I - 1st Place Amelia Hone, 2nd Place Olivia Tsechrintzis and 3rd Place Amelia Bonafede. Group II - 1st Place Lucia Bonafede, 2nd Place Peyton Moses and 3rd Place Grace McKeen. Group III - 1st Place Kiara Reagan.
