Click here to view a Facebook gallery of the artwork!
Of the 40 overall winners, 5th grader Ivan Fang of Katy was selected to win the Grand Prize. Ivan's teacher, HongLiang Huang, will also receive a prize package. Ivan’s artwork features a crab carrying a NASA shuttle, a cityscape and a sign announcing, “It’s Time to Travel.”
All winning artwork will appear together in the 2025 Adopt-A-Beach calendar, which will be distributed throughout the state. This year's grand prize winner will receive one 6-8-night Caribbean cruise for two from Royal Caribbean International and a copy of the book “The Big Beach Cleanup” courtesy of author Charlotte Offsay. The grand prize winner's teacher will also receive one 6-8-night Caribbean cruise for two courtesy of Royal Caribbean International and a gift card to an art supply store from Texas Adopt-A-Beach.
All 40 student winners will receive two tickets to Schlitterbahn, one ticket to the USS Lexington, a coupon from Texas State Aquarium, prizes from Adopt-A-Beach, a certificate of recognition from the Texas General Land Office and copies of the 2025 calendar displaying the winning artwork.
Last year, we added an Honorable Mention designee in each age group. While these students will not receive the above-mentioned prizes, the judges determined their work warranted recognition, so these students will receive a certificate of appreciation from the Texas General Land Office and a gift from Texas Adopt-A-Beach. The Grand Prize Runner-Up will receive an additional prize from Adopt-A-Beach. All prize packages will be mailed out in late May.
