White House Easter Egg Artistry Contest:

This program was discontinued in 2009 by the Obama Administration.

This contest was started in 1994 when the White House asked the American Egg Board to coordinate a display of decorated eggs during the Easter season as part of the White House Easter festivities. The display consists of one egg from each state in the country, as well as the District of Columbia.

Annually, each state selects an artist for this prestigious honor. In Nebraska, a statewide contest is held. The winning egg from the state of Nebraska will be sent to the American Egg Board for the following year's White House Easter egg display. The egg should be decorated to represent some special feature(s) of the state of Nebraska.
