Calling All Artists for Abbotsford’s Community Banner Project!

October 10, 2018 3:25 pm

The City of Abbotsford and The Reach Gallery Museum are delighted to collaborate on launching a call for submissions for a Community Banner Project. Artists of all ages and skill levels are asked to contribute their designs for consideration for street banners which will be displayed in Abbotsford’s Civic Precinct and Mill Lake Park neighbourhoods. Approximately 50 winning designs will be decided by public vote, and each winning artist will be provided with materials to create their banner by hand.

Artists are encouraged to submit original designs by the deadline on October 22, 2018. The design theme should in some way reflect Abbotsford’s contemporary public life and diverse cultural heritage, and artists may submit up to three designs each.

If you enjoy drawing, painting and design and are eager to share your talents with your community, you can access the entry form and guidelines at www.abbotsford.ca/banner or contact Andrea Pepper at 604-864-8087 EXT: 126 or by email apepper@thereach.ca.

Artists are encouraged to review the guidelines carefully before making a submission. Winners will be announced November 19, 2018
