Congratulations are in order for one of Wyoming’s own! 🎨✈️

The Wyoming Aeronautics Commission is proud to recognize Lottie, of Mountain View, for her outstanding accomplishment in this year’s International Aviation Art Contest. Centered on the theme "Fly to Save Lives," this year's competition challenged young artists to illustrate the vital role of aviation in humanitarian missions and emergency response.

Lottie has been awarded Second Place in the Intermediate category at the national level! Her artwork, which beautifully captured the spirit of service and the lifesaving impact of flight, will now advance to the international stage for further judging.

Having received the top international honor for her age group last year, Lottie’s continued success is a testament to her vision and skill. We are incredibly proud to have such a talented artist represent Wyoming.

Please join us in wishing Lottie the best of luck as her artwork takes flight on the global stage!
