International Space Art and Poetry Contest

International Space Art and Poetry Contest

The International Space Art and Poetry Contest is a collaboration between Axiom astronaut John Shoffner, Limitless Space Institute, The Perseid Foundation, and the ISS National Lab, in which students and educators around the world are invited to submit drawings, paintings, or poems. The submissions showcase their ideas of what it would look like to live in space.  Art and poems chosen from each of four age categories are printed on the International Space Station. Axiom Space astronauts create a video and photographs then return the physical prints from space to their creators. This program inspires student creativity and interest in space and helps create the next generation of explorers.
