Earth Day 50th Anniversary Poster Contest

EOHSI Earth Day 2020 Contest

Congratulations to all participants and winners!

Greetings Everyone,

I want to thank each and every one of our contestants for their beautiful and inspiring art work commemorating the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day. The continuing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic is a stark reminder of how fragile our beautiful planet is, and that our own health is linked to that of Mother Earth. All of your wonderful posters captured the spirit of Earth Day and inspired all of us at EOHSI to keep working towards improving the health of all. After enjoying more than 120 posters, more than 70 judges selected three winners in each age category. The winners are shown below, but all of you are winners! We will make all entries available for you enjoyment at the bottom of this page. Every poster was a win for Mother Earth and will be displayed in our building throughout the year.

Once the pandemic is over, we will have a reception for all participants and their families at the Institute, where all will be recognized and presented with a momento of their participation. We look forward to meeting and honoring all our artists who showed their love and concern for the Earth and our health. Best wishes, Helmut Zarbl
