Palmer, Wrangell High School Among Top 50 Finalist in Vans Custom Culture Contest

Two Alaskan high schools have entries which have made it to the Top 50 round in the 2022 Vans Custom Culture High School Contest. The winning school will receive $50,000 for its arts program.

Vans says that the contest created to inspire and empower high school students to embrace their creativity through art and design and bring attention to diminishing arts education budgets. Vans believes everyone should be empowered to express themselves creatively and should be given the tools to do so. Custom Culture High School is a national high school customization competition using blank Vans shoes to be customized around the specific themes, Hometown Pride and VanD(IY)oren Legacy.

Palmer High School and Wrangell High School are among the Top 50 designs. People can vote for their favorite design once per day through May 6.
