The Air Force Services Center announced the winners of the 2023 Air Force Art Contest July 11.
“With over 1,400 entries this year, the judges had a challenging time deciding the top three in each of the categories,” said Debbie Southee, community programs director at AFSVC.
In addition to 2D art, the services center added a 3D art category to include ceramics, sculpture and glass. The category was very popular, Southee said, so artists can look forward to submitting in that category again next year.
Winners in each category win gift cards valued from $500 to $300, depending on placement.
