NAYGN Drawing Contest

Welcome to the 16th Annual NAYGN Drawing Contest! As one of NAYGN’s most successful activities, the Drawing Contest educates 4th and 5th grade students about the wonders of nuclear science and technology. NAYGN members from across the continent volunteer to give educational presentations at local schools. Students are encouraged to submit drawings inspired by these presentations.

Winners will be selected by December 2015. Check out the finalists’ drawings, and vote for your favorite!
