January 12 Is The Deadline To Enter California Strawberry Festival Artwork Contest

VENTURA, Calif. - Jan. 2, 2024 - PRLog -- The deadline to submit an entry into the 38^th Annual California Strawberry Festival Artwork Contest is fast approaching. The deadline is Friday, January 12. The winning artist will receive $2,000 and VIP tickets to the festival, which takes place May 18-19 at the Ventura County Fairgrounds.

This is the first California Strawberry Artwork Contest since 2020 when the pandemic resulted in the cancellation of that year's festival. A panel of judges will look for creativity and the incorporation of a strawberry theme into the design. The winning entry may be used in the festival's printed and digital advertising collateral as well as on souvenir merchandise such as t-shirts.

The winner will be notified around the second week of February and will be the guest of honor at a March luncheon where the design will be unveiled.

Artists can create their designs in a variety of mediums--digital, oils, watercolors, inks, pencil, photograph, and mixed media. There is no fee to enter and artists can submit multiple entries. Visit www.castrawberryfestival.org for artwork contest rules and entry form.
