In honor of National First Responders Day (NFRD) this year, we teamed up with NCT 911 to host Texas’s first-ever NFRD Art Contest, inviting elementary students to capture the bravery and dedication of our first responders through art. This statewide contest saw over 100 students submit heartfelt and imaginative depictions of first responders in action, celebrating the 911 heroes who work tirelessly to keep our communities safe.
We are thrilled to announce that the winning piece was created by Landrie Reeves, a talented sixth grader from Stafford Elementary. Landry’s artwork beautifully highlights emergency vehicles and first responders working together, capturing the essential role of each team that contributes to community safety. This stunning piece will soon become a mural in North Texas, standing as a permanent tribute to the dedication of first responders who serve us every day.
A huge thank you to every young artist who participated in the contest. Your creativity and thoughtfulness shine through each piece, demonstrating an inspiring appreciation for the heroes among us. Below, you can enjoy Landries' winning artwork along with a selection of other beautiful submissions that honor our first responders with color, creativity, and gratitude.
