Castle Hill Contests Deadline Reminder - January 3rd

The Truro Center for the Arts at Castle Hill previously announced that as part of the celebrations of its 40th anniversary in 2011 there would be a contest to create a unique and distinctive 40th anniversary logo. The logo will be used in all branding in 2011 to commemorate the celebration. The only requirements for the logo are that it should be one color and that it contains the words “celebrating our 40th anniversary”.

A second competition is also underway for artists to submit a color painting or drawing that will be featured on the 2011 Castle Hill catalog. The annual catalog reaches a wide distribution with over 10,000 copies printed and distributed nationwide.

All artist submissions for both the logo contest and the catalog cover contest can be sent to Cherie@castlehill.org with the deadline being Monday, January 3rd, 2011. Please ensure this is a high resolution (300 dpi and above) image.
