School Art Program
The School Art Program began in 1964 as a poster contest. The official School Art Committee was formed in 1969, creating the first School Art competition for the 1970 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. Currently, there are approximately 300,000 students in 100 public school districts and 60 private schools who create Western heritage artwork and receive a School Art Program certificate of merit. In 2009, 629 pieces of winning artwork were selected, and from this artwork, approximately 50 pieces were sold at the School Art Auction. In 2009, the Auction generated $1.16 million.
