FWP, Conservation Partners Seek Original Art Submissions for Montana Artwork Contest
Fish, Wildlife and Parks
Montana’s big game species—elk, mule deer, moose, pronghorn, and more—depend on the ability to move freely across the landscape to survive. Seasonal migration is essential for accessing food, water and habitat, but highways can pose serious barriers to that movement. That’s why Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks and conservation partners are launching the Montana Big Game and Wildlife Highway Crossings License Plate Artwork Contest—and we’re inviting artists to help bring this story to life.
The new specialty license plate will raise awareness and funding for the Big Game and Wildlife Highway Crossings and Accommodations Account, which will help build infrastructure that helps animals cross highways and safely maintain their natural migration routes. FWP is looking for original artwork that highlights the importance of wildlife movement, features a highway crossing structure and captures the beauty of Montana’s landscapes. The selected artist will receive a $1,000 prize and a commemorative sample plate.
Submissions will be taken from Aug. 15 through Oct. 17. A submission link will be posted at https://www.trcp.org/2025/07/23/help-tell-the-story-of-montanas-big-game-migration-through-art/ on Aug. 15. This is a unique opportunity to support conservation through creativity and help protect the future of Montana’s migratory wildlife.
