Event organizers now accepting art submissions for 2026 Bridge Day Poster Contest

Fayetteville, WV (WOAY) Calling all artists! 

Bridge Day is looking for a creative design to represent the 2026 celebration at the New River Gorge. 

Artists can use any medium to create an 11×17-inch poster, but entries must include the phrases “Bridge Day 2026,” “New River Gorge,” and either “West Virginia” or “WV.”

Organizers say AI-generated posters will not be accepted.

The winning artist will receive a $250 cash prize, sponsored by Lost Appalachia Trading Company, along with the opportunity to vend at Bridge Day 2026.
