Our 54 Doodle for Google winners show their strength
In January, we kicked off the 13th annual Doodle for Google contest by inviting K-12 students across the country to submit their artistic interpretations of this year’s contest theme “I am strong because…”.
The COVID-19 pandemic has truly shown me, and many of our contest applicants, how important it is to stay strong when you’re facing the unknown. The tens of thousands of pieces of beautiful artwork we saw from students were encouraging, uplifting and inspiring. Some pieces focused on honoring our medical heroes and essential workers, and others on finding hope amidst loss or on using this time to connect with family and loved ones.
The strength, honesty and creativity these students shared has been humbling. Today, we’re announcing our 54 state and territory winners. To celebrate our talented winners, we sent each of the 54 students Google hardware and swag — as well as a very special congratulatory video message honoring their artistry from the Doodle for Google team.
Head to doodle4google.com to see the full gallery of all 54 state and territory winners and vote for your favorite Doodles. Your vote helps determine who will go on to become one of our five national finalists — one of which will become our national winner.
Congratulations again to the 2021 Doodle for Google state and territory winners!
