VA and the Veterans Day National Committee, the latter of which BVA is a longstanding member, are now accepting entries for the 2025 Veterans Day Poster Contest. The competition, conducted annually and open to all, is an opportunity for seasoned or budding artists to use their creative talents to honor veterans.

Art should reflect this year’s theme, “Service to our Nation.” All submissions are due by 11:59pm Eastern Time on May 2, 2025.

To ensure that a submission meets technical requirements, participants should please review VA’s design submission guidelines before engaging their creativity.  Successful designs are very simple, with minimal imagery and verbiage. To view examples of past winning submissions, visit The Veterans Day Poster Gallery.

Electronic versions should be submitted as jpg/jpeg images or PDF files to both vetsday@va.gov and Veterans Day Coordinator Cherie Parker, cherie.parker@va.gov. Questions can also be directed via email using the same two addresses.
