NASA is sponsoring a space art contest for kids ages 4-12 on the theme of astronauts flying on commercial crew vehicles to the ISS:\u00a0Commercial Crew 2018 Calendar Artwork Contest | NASA<\/a><\/p>\n

NASA\u2019s Commercial Crew Program is partnering with private companies to develop new spacecraft to fly astronauts on NASA missions to the International Space Station, and we want kids to have a fun way to learn more about this program while being creative!<\/em><\/p>\n

The Commercial Crew Program is holding an artwork contest from Oct. 2 to Nov. 2 for children ages four to 12 years old. The winning artwork will be used to create a 2018 calendar, which has a different space-related theme for each month. The themes educate students about the International Space Station, astronauts, growing food in space and more! Unique and original artwork will be selected for each month. Once the calendar is complete, it will be transmitted to astronauts aboard the\u00a0space station. The calendar also will include supplemental education materials for kids here on Earth to learn more about the space-related themes.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
