Each year, students across the country submit artwork, poetry, essays and videos to the National Youth Remembrance Contests, organized by the Legion National Foundation. This year, the Canadian War Museum is proud to exhibit the winning entries — eight posters, two literary pieces, and two videos.
The contests are held at the Senior (grades 10, 11 and 12), Intermediate (grades 7, 8 and 9), Junior (grades 4, 5 and 6), and Primary (kindergarten, grades 1, 2 and 3) levels.
