LLCT Student Sticker Design Contest 2026
Celebrating Local Creativity and Wildlife
This past fall, the Lincoln Land Conservation Trust launched our first-ever Student Sticker Design Contest, inviting young artists in our community to celebrate the natural world through creative expression. The contest opened in early September 2025 and closed at the end of the month, giving students time to reflect on the places and wildlife they love in Lincoln.
Participants were encouraged to design original artwork inspired by our conservation land—its plants, animals, seasons, and special landscapes. We were thrilled by the range of thoughtful and imaginative pieces submitted across grade levels, and we’re excited to make this contest an annual tradition.
LLCT staff carefully reviewed all submissions and selected several standout designs to be produced as limited-edition stickers. Winning students received printed copies of their stickers along with a small gift card prize. Their artwork will also be featured at upcoming LLCT programs and community events.
NEW: 2026 Student Sticker Pack Now Available
We’re excited to offer a special 2026 Sticker Pack featuring the 4 winning designs from this year’s contest!
These limited-edition stickers were created by local students and celebrate Lincoln’s wildlife and natural spaces through their unique artistic perspectives.
Sticker packs are now available for purchase in the LLCT Online Store.
Shipping is free and all proceeds support LLCT’s education and community engagement programming.
Meet the Winners
To celebrate the winning artists, Danielle, LLCT’s Outreach Coordinator, visited each student to deliver their prizes and their finished stickers in person. It was wonderful to see the students’ excitement as they held their original designs alongside the final sticker version!
