2018 National Veterans Day Poster Contest
2017 Veterans Day Poster
By Matthew Gowan, Public Affairs Officer
Wednesday, January 3, 2018
The 2018 National Veterans Day Poster Contest is underway! The Veterans Day National Committee annually publishes a commemorative Veterans Day poster selected from artwork by artists nationwide. It is distributed to VA facilities, military installations worldwide, and across cities and towns in our nation. The poster becomes the official program cover for the Veterans Day Observance, Arlington National Cemetery.
2018 marks the Centennial Commemoration of the end of WW I, November 11, 1918, so the theme for this year’s poster is “The War to End All Wars.”
Submission guidelines:
- 18” x 24” at 300 dots per inch; scale down to 9” x 12”
- Deadline is April 1, 2018
- Not restricted to “human-centric” presentations, such as a joint color guard. Can be imagery of American icons, monuments or scenery, such as the American flag.
