Mile High Band Association’s Jazz & Beyond Festival Committee is sponsoring an art contest for Northern Nevada artists.

Selected entries in the competition may be used to promote the festival, and the winning entry will be featured on the festival’s advertising poster and program cover. Festival T-shirts may also feature the winning design. 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. Entry forms are available for download at www.jazzcarsoncity.com.

Artists may submit more than one entry. Artwork must be 11” x 14” and may be in any two-dimensional medium (photography, digital collage and photography, watercolor, acrylic, oil, etc.). Artwork must be matted, backed, and submitted in a protective sleeve.

The design must be related to music. Each submission must include a separate entry form.

Artists are to deliver entries by May 31 to the NAA Gallery, 449 W. King St., Tuesday-Sunday, noon to 4 p.m. The entry form and a photo or digital image of the artwork (not to exceed 20 MB) must also be sent as an email attachment to info@jazzcarsoncity.com.
