Choose your favorites from 24 finalists

Join the Wyandotte County Public Health Department at the Third Friday Art Walk on August 15, 2025, from 5-9 PM, to vote for your favorite artwork from the Healthy Choices, Healthy Communities Art Contest finalists. Finalists' artwork will be displayed at 611 N 6th St (inside EPIC Clay Studio).

We received more than 80 entries. A panel of judges from the Health Department, Kansas City, Kansas Public Library, and the Bonner Springs City Library used a rubric to review the submissions and select 24 finalists. Community votes will help select the final 13 winners. The winners will receive a VISA gift card and have their artwork featured in a 2026 Wyandotte County Public Health Department Calendar (1 grand prize winner on the cover and 12 others for the months).

The contest is coordinated by the Wyandotte County Public Health Department in partnership with the Kansas City, Kansas Public Library and the Bonner Springs City Library.
