Original artwork by Idaho artists featured on new plates

IDAHO — The winners have been announced for the 2024 wildlife license plate redesign contest, according to the Idaho Fish and Wildlife Foundation (IFWF).

The IFWF , a partner of the Idaho Fish and Game, has released three new colorful license plate options featuring original artwork by Idaho artists.

Proceeds from each license plate purchase go to three distinct causes—all designed to support Fish and Game's wildlife diversity program.

• The bluebird plates run $35 brand new, $25 of which goes to IFWF’s wildlife diversity program. If renewing your plate, the cost is $25, with $15 being set aside for wildlife. The new bluebird artwork was illustrated by Coeur d’Alene resident Stephen Clark.

• The cutthroat trout plates cost $35 (new) and $15 (renewed). Depending on which option you’re going with—either $25 or $15 as a contribution—a small portion of that goes towards the construction and maintenance of non-motorized boating access facilities for anglers. The cutthroat trout artwork was also illustrated by Stephen Clark.

• The elk plates cost $35 (new) and $15 (renewed). The contribution portions are the same as above, either $25 or $15, with a small percentage of that going towards Idaho Fish and Game’s wildlife disease lab and the livestock disease control fund. The new elk design was illustrated by Filer resident Courtney Cunningham.
