Pencil 2 Planet Art Contest Winners

We are honored to have recieved 200+ submissions and recognized 15 finalists for the Pencil 2 Planet Art Contest. We are so grateful for the opportunity to once again recognize and celebrate these talented young artists. Their work sends a powerful message about the urgency of environmental issues, especially when juxtaposed with the natural beauty we are working to protect. Hearing the stories behind each piece was truly inspiring.

Each student used recycled materials in their work, creating a synthesis between ideas, process, and materials that reinforced the environmental themes at the heart of this exhibition.

We were proud to partner with the City of Calabasas Environmental Commission, whose commissioners served as jurors for this exhibition. Their insight and dedication to environmental advocacy made this collaboration especially meaningful.

Thank you to all who participated and portrayed the power of art in portraying environmental damage!
