Conservation Stamp Art Show

2017 Conservation Stamp Art Competition Winner
Artist: Andrew Kneeland, Rock Springs, WY, Species: Mallard (Anas platyrhynchos)

The Wyoming Game and Fish Department's Conservation Stamp Art competition continues to lead the country in state wildlife stamp art competitions in number of entries, prize money and quality of artwork. The winner will be reproduced on approximately 200,000 Conservation Stamps. The original piece of art becomes the property of the Wyoming Game and Fish Department to be placed on permanent public display in the department's Cheyenne headquarters office.

Conservation stamps originated in 1984 and almost all hunters and anglers in Wyoming must purchase the stamp yearly. Stamps are also purchased by collectors and purchasers of the Wyoming Conservation Stamp limited edition art prints.

2018 Species and Beyond

The conservation stamp species for next year, the 2018 Conservation Stamp Art Show, will be the badger. The 2019 stamp will be the mule deer (the 30th anniversary of the last time we used the mule deer, and the 35th anniversary of the art show). The 2020 stamp species will be the Colorado River cutthroat.

Please keep a look out for our 2018 Rulebook as it will become available late summer/early fall.
