Information | 2007 Winners

The Wetlands Institute is the official State of New Jersey site for Junior Duck Stamp entries and judging.

The Federal Junior Duck Stamp Conservation and Design Program is an integrated art and science curriculum developed to teach environmental science and habitat conservation.

A Junior Duck Stamp design is a "term paper" in which students use visual rather than verbal articulation to show what they have learned. Participants select a species of North American waterfowl, do research on this species and its habitat, then depict the waterfowl in an artistic medium.

K-12 students attending public, private, or home schools in the United States are eligible to enter; so long as they are U.S. citizens, resident aliens, or nationals.

First Place National Winner receives a $2500 cash award and a free trip to Washington, D.C. in the fall to attend the (adult) Federal Duck Stamp Contest, along with his/her art teacher; one of his/her parents, and his/her state coordinator. The national first place winning design is used to produce the Federal Junior Duck Stamp.

Entries are judged in 4 grade groups (K-3rd, 4th-6th, 7th-9th, and 10th -12th), with three first place, three second place, three third place, and sixteen honorable mention ribbons awarded. The state Best of Show is selected from the 12 first place winning designs and competes in the national competition in Washington, DC.  All National and State winning designs are on display during the year and are returned to the students the following spring.

A free curriculum guide for teachers is available by contacting the Federal Duck Stamp Office, Department of the Interior, 1849 C Street NW, Room 2058, Washington, DC  20240.
