Art Contest for Middle and High School Students

Hey students! Get your art onto people’s backs! Help the Young Auditorium design a t-shirt for the 2010 Big Read!

Middle and High School students in Rock, Walworth and Jefferson Counties (and nearby communities) are invited to submit their own artwork to be considered for the official design of the region’s second Big Read. Artwork must be based on the theme “Waves Seen, Waves Heard” or another theme generated by this years’ Big Read book, Sun, Stone and Shadows: 20 Great Mexican Short Stories.

One design will be chosen as the official Big Read 2010 logo and printed on 100 give-away Big Read t-shirts. The student will also receive special recognition during the event finale. Up to 20 other designs will be framed and exhibited during the month of April at Studio 84, in Whitewater.

Submissions are due on February 5th by noon to the Young Auditorium. Finalists will receive tickets to the final Big Read event, Sones de Mexico on May 4th at 7:30 p.m.
