The Red River Parish Rodeo is calling all young artists and creative minds to take part in an exciting Art Design Contest with a chance to win cash prizes. Contestants are invited to showcase their imagination by drawing a cowboy or cowgirl in their best western attire—designed entirely by the artist.

The contest is open now, with the deadline to submit entries set for August 29, 2025. Entries may be submitted in several convenient ways:

• Turn in your design at your school.

• Send through Facebook Messenger to the Red River Fair & Rodeo page.

• Email to redriverparishfair@gmail.com or membynancy1@aol.com.

• Mail to: Red River Fair & Rodeo, P.O. Box 352, Coushatta, LA 71019. (Entries must be received by August 29, not postmarked by that date.)

Organizers encourage participants to let their creativity shine by combining artistic skill with western flair. Complete rules and guidelines are available on the official flyer (see below).
