Welcome to the 2026 DooDad Sculpture Competition!

The competition portion of the 2025 Repurposed DooDad Sculpture Competition has officially concluded, and we are incredibly grateful to the students, teachers, families, and schools who brought this year’s theme to life with such imagination and ingenuity.

From inventive uses of obsolete objects to thoughtful interpretations of “Florida, Flying into the Future,” the sculptures submitted this year demonstrated the creativity, humor, and environmental awareness that make the DooDad Competition so special.

Judging and People’s Choice Voting has completed! 🎉

While the judging is complete, the celebration continues! Many of this year’s sculptures are now being featured in exhibitions throughout the Tampa Bay area.  

Thank you to every student artist who participated and to the educators who encouraged their creativity!

Description: The Sea Saver: Reef Cleaner 3000: My DooDad project is about a Reef Cleaner 3,000, which is an underwater robot that cleans Florida's oceans and helps sea animals.  I used lights for eyes, an air fryer for the body, and plastic tubes for arms and broken CDs for scales and fins.  This project helped me learn that stuff we call trash can actually be reused to help our oceans, sea life, and art.
