DELAWARE—In recognition of Police Week from May 14-20, the Delaware State Police Community Outreach Unit is sponsoring an art contest for students in kindergarten through 6th grade.

The theme for this year’s contest is “Police Protecting Our Community”. Children are invited to submit artwork reflecting this theme.  The contest is open to any child who lives or attends school in Delaware.

Artwork should be no larger than 12 inches by 18 inches and must be flat and not 3-Dimensional. Students may use crayons, chalk, colored pencils, charcoal, water colors, oil pastels or markers.  Projects should be completed by students only and be turned in with a completed entry form attached to the back of the art.   Forms are available at the front desk at all Delaware State Police Troop locations and are available for download at http://dsp.delaware.gov/community_outreach.shtml.
