The Indiana Dept. of Natural Resources (Division of Fish and Wildlife) has announced its decision to discontinue the biennial stamp and calendar art contest. Becky Mauser, program director, says the move to cancel the competition was a matter of prudence. “We’ve decided to commission the art instead of holding a contest. It’s less expensive and less time consuming in tight-budget times.” Artists interested in contacting the state may do so at: Indiana DNR, 402 W. Washington, Room W273, Indianapolis, Ind. 46204-2267.
