FVL Poster Contest

FVL Schools Poster Contest 2026

Congratulations to our 2026 Winners!

FVL’s Annual Poster Contest has been held since 1989 to give young students a chance to express their artistic talents and to give them the opportunity to express in their design what they think makes FVL special.

The poster contest is open to all Federation third and fourth grade students. A first place winner is chosen from every school that participates, and from those first place winners, the Grand Prize Poster is selected. The top five posters from each grade level are pictured below, with the list of all the winners listed beneath the images.

The winning poster will be reproduced in color and shared with our FVL Schools and churches. All winning posters are on display in the tower entryway at FVL.

Thanks to all who participated . . . and their teachers!
