🎨🇺🇸 Congratulations, Kate Wagers!

San Marin High School senior Kate Wagers has been named the local winner of the VFW Auxiliary Donald V. Westlund Post 7816 Patriotic Arts Contest for her outstanding artwork—and is advancing to the state level!

Kate’s piece reflects her belief that patriotism means loving the people who make up our country. Inspired by the history and contributions of immigrants, her artwork features a welcoming Statue of Liberty surrounded by the many journeys that bring people to America.

If selected at the state level, Kate will advance to nationals and compete for a share of $37,000 in awards.

This is the first year the Novato VFW Auxiliary has supported this contest—what an incredible achievement! 👏
