The Central Coast AirFest has extended the submission deadline for young artists to participate in their Youth Art Contest to this Thursday, Oct. 16, 2025.

With a theme of "High Flying Adventures," the Art Contest gives students K-12 in San Luis Obispo County and Santa Barbara County the opportunity to be recognized for their skills, with all finalists' works of art on display during the event on Oct. 18-19.

Aerospace and aviation are triumphs of science, technology, engineering and math. In an effort to inspire the next generation of STEM professionals, the Central Coast AirFest is free this year for children 11 years old and under.
