Virginia Lottery “Thank a Teacher” Art Contest
Students are encouraged to create art that expresses their gratitude for Virginia’s public-school teachers. The Lottery will accept submissions online at thankateacherva.com through November 23, 2026. One winner will be selected at each level: elementary, middle and high school. The school that each winner attends will receive $2,000 from The Supply Room. The winning artists will each receive a $200 Visa® gift card in addition to having their winning original artwork featured on thank-you notes distributed across Virginia.
