Keep Student’s Creative Juices Flowing With An Art Contest

The Foundation is now accepting submissions for their annual “Marines in Flight” art contest. The goal of the student art contest is to give local students a platform to express their artistic and creative skills and share their passion of military history.

Winners will receive a cash prize and have their artwork displayed at an exhibit at the Flying Leatherneck Aviation Museum.
