Welcome to Bow Seat’s Ocean Advocacy Art Gallery!

This interactive space showcases the award-winning Art, Poetry & Spoken Word, Creative Writing, Film, Performing Arts, and Interactive & Multimedia created by middle and high school youth around the world in response to our annual call for art, the Ocean Awareness Contest. This space is a celebration of individual artistic expression as well as the power of collective voices—a global community of youth passionate about conservation. We invite you to dive into this powerful collection that explores how human activities impact the health of our blue planet, and shines light on our intimate connection with oceans and marine life.

Unfortunately, we are experiencing technical difficulties with our online Gallery. We are working to resolve this as soon as possible. Please clear your browser cache (PC, Mac) in order to access the most updated version of the Gallery. Thank you for your patience during this time!
