Delaware's public transit system has given students additional time to submit artwork for their annual poster competition. The contest encourages young artists to showcase how public transportation connects communities across the state.

Students across Delaware now have more time to showcase their artistic talents in the state’s public transit poster competition.

The Delaware Transit Corporation has pushed back the submission deadline for their yearly student art contest to April 17th, giving young artists extra time to complete their entries.

This year’s theme centers around “DARTLEY’s Passport to Discovery: Where Could DART Take You?” The competition encourages students to use their creativity while featuring DARTLEY, the transit system’s mascot and travel companion.

The contest asks participants to envision the many destinations and opportunities that become accessible through Delaware’s public bus system. Students are encouraged to think about how public transportation opens doors to new experiences and adventures throughout the state.

The extended deadline gives Delaware students additional weeks to develop their poster designs and submit their artwork for consideration in the statewide competition.
