* FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE *
4th of July Art Contest – Going on NOW!
The Sierra Madre 4th of July Committee is Calling on All Local Artists of all ages to display for us your fun, focused and zany artwork for the 2021 Sierra Madre 4th of July t-shirts. Together let’s show our USA spirit and Sierra Madre pride as we showcase the winning art work on t-shirts, posters and social media throughout this year’s events.
If you are an artist of any age and love Sierra Madre and its historic traditions, get your creativity flowing and give designing a try while following these simple guidelines:
* Subject Matter/Design: Your design and illustration should reflect this year's theme: #SMStrong #SMThrives
* Medium: Any medium is welcome (crayon, watercolor, digital etc.) as long as the design is colorful. Use dense colors if possible — they look best!
* No Words: Because we add title, date, etc., during the printing process, please do not include any words in your artwork.
* Size and Dimension: Designs should be no bigger than 8" wide x 10" deep with a half-inch margin all around the art ("portrait" layout, or "landscape" layout OK). Scale sizes are ok; for instance, artwork 5 1/2" wide x 8 1/2" deep would also work.
* Include Contact Information: Make sure that the name, age, and contact information (email and phone number) of the artist. The winning artist will be contacted by the committee for further information.
* Deadline: SUBMIT your design by Monday, March 1, 2021, to the Sierra Madre 4th of July Committee PO Box 1073 Sierra Madre CA 91024 or email to us at 4thofjulysierramadre@gmail.com or even DM us on Facebook. The 4th of July Committee will be reviewing entries at the March 2, 2021 meeting.
