Parker River NWR Youth Art Contest

Parker River National Wildlife Refuse in Newburyport Massachusetts is Seeking Young Artists to Help Beach Birds

Parker River National Wildlife Refuge is calling on all youth, grades K to 12, to help spread the word about the importance of beaches to shorebirds by entering the Refuge’s Annual Shorebird Youth Art Contest. While most locals know about the annual beach closure at Parker River National Wildlife Refuge for nesting piping plovers, many visitors do not pay attention to the “Area Closed” signs posted at the boundaries.  By turning youth art into informational signs to educate visitors about shorebirds, the Refuge aims to provide the best experience for beachgoers and shorebirds alike.
