Hey there, bird and nature artist!

Submit your fine art for a chance to be commissioned for our Bird of the Year 2027!

Call for Artists: Bird of the Year Commission 2027

Are you a talented local artist with a passion for nature and birds?

We are searching for an artist to commission our Bird of the Year 2027 for an exciting and unique project. If selected, you’ll have the opportunity to create a one-of-a-kind fine artwork that will be featured as our showcase piece for the year 2027. Your work will be our highlight auction item for Alabama Audubon’s Bird of the Year Fundraiser.

Who will the bird be? We work in secret with the artist to create a magical artwork that will be publicly revealed at the Bird of the Year Fundraiser. We focus each year on an Alabama bird species in need of conservation and highlight the species throughout the year.

Submission Details:

  • Please submit a link to your website and/or upload 2-3 pictures of your finest artwork

  • Deadline: July 15 2026 at 11:55PM

This is an amazing opportunity for both established and emerging artists to gain recognition and support within the local community.

We look forward to seeing your work!
