Selected entries in the competition may be used to promote the festival. The winning entry will be featured on the festival’s advertising poster and program cover. Festival T-shirts may also feature the winning design. The entry deadline is May 17 and participation is free. The artwork will be judged by the Jazz & Beyond committee. The winner of the competition will receive a certificate of appreciation and a cash award of $100. Artists may submit more than one entry.
