CALL FOR ARTISTS – 2012 PEOPLE’S FAIR IMAGE CONTEST!
CHUN Announces Image Contest for 41st Annual People’s Fair Denver, Colo. – October 13, 2011
– Capitol Hill United Neighborhoods (CHUN) is proud to announce that we are seeking an image design to celebrate the 41st annual CHUN Capitol Hill People’s Fair (June 2 and 3, 2012).
Each year, artists from across the state are invited to submit an original design to the Image Contest, from which the work is judged and an image is selected to represent the People’s Fair in our promotional campaign for that year. “The ‘Call for Artists’ for the Image Contest is our kick-off to People’s Fair planning and production each year,” said Executive Director, Roger Armstrong.
“We are excited to begin planning the 41st annual People’s Fair, and look forward to the creativity expressed from our local artists.” Applications are available now online (please click here: http://www.chundenver.org/display_page.asp?site_id=5&page_id=224&m=1&pid=186), and will encourage local artists to create an image for the Fair, which may be included on the People’s Fair poster, and various print materials and/or souvenirs.
Again this year, we will accept images submitted digitally, as well as framed entries. All local artists are invited to participate, and should use the following criteria in designing their project:
1. Image must be full-color, festive, original, and must be available digitally if selected
2. Image should be recognizable and reproducible in one color
3. Should be adaptable for possible poster production
4. Theme should incorporate some aspect of: community, celebration, urban, diversity, neighborhoods
5. The image must include the following text:
a. 41st Annual CHUN Capitol Hill People’s Fair
b. June 2 & 3, 2012
c. Civic Center Park, Denver, Colorado
d. Produced by Capitol Hill United Neighborhoods, Inc. (CHUN)
6. Image entry must be framed, and must be no smaller than 11”x17” and no larger than 18”x24”. Framed images must have two hanging brackets attached, one for each vertical edge.
7. Image may be submitted in high resolution digital format in either JPG, TIF or PDF format.
Digital images should be sent to: [email protected] with “Image Contest” in the subject line.
8. All images are due to the CHUN office at 1290 Williams St. by November 28, 2011 at 5:00pm. The images will be displayed at the annual CHUN Holiday Open House (date TBD, early- to mid-December), and the public is invited to join us and vote for their favorite entry!
The selected image will be unveiled at the CHUN Annual Meeting in early January, 2012. The logo will be selected by a committee consisting of People’s Fair staff and Steering Committee members. The 40th Annual CHUN Capitol Hill People’s Fair was presented by Miller Brewing Company and FOX 31 News. Associate Sponsors included Pepsi, The Denver Post, Comcast, Cricket Communications, Entercom Denver stations 99.5 The Mountain, KOSI 101, Studio 1430 AM and Alice 105.9, and Jagermeister.
