LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Nebraska is giving away twelve $1,000 prizes to help people save for their kids' college educations.
Students who want to enter the contest have to submit a picture of what they dream of becoming when they grow up. The pictures must be drawn on 9-by-12-inch paper and be landscape-oriented.
The entries will be judged by members of the Nebraska Art Teachers Association. The first 500 submissions received between Friday and Sept. 30 will be included.
Students in kindergarten through eighth grade are eligible to enter.
