EAA Sport Aviation Art Competition
The EAA Sport Aviation Art Competition is an open theme exhibition focused around aviation. Only original artwork will be accepted. Computer enhanced art is ineligible. Photographs, giclees, computer graphics, photo-offset lithographs, or other reproductions are also ineligible.
This annual event is the world’s longest running aviation art contest. It is open to any aviation theme with the caveat that jury selections will focus on media portraying EAA related interests; Homebuilt aircraft, Aerobatics, Warbirds, Vintage Aircraft, and Flight Instruction.
