There will also be 23 merit award winners who will win $500 each, and a certificate.
Locally, here in the Jesup area, the first-place winners will receive a $50 Savings Bond and a certificate.
Who can enter
While the Peace Poster Contest for Lions Club International is open to all ages, only participants who are ages 11, 12 and 13 by Nov. 15, 2008 will advance to the state and international contest.
Locally, here in Jesup, there will be three age groups: ages 10 and under; ages 11-13 (those go on to state/international contest); and ages 14 and over.
What to draw
The theme for the Poster Contest is Peace Begins with Me.
Letters or numbers cannot be used on the front of the poster.
Any type of media can be used, however, chalk, charcoal and pastel entries should be sealed with a fixative spray. (Don’t laminate your poster.)
Artwork should measure no smaller than 13 x 20 inches and no larger than 20 x 24 inches. The artwork should not be framed or matted or folded. It must be able to be rolled for shipping in a mailing tube.
No three-dimensional entries will be accepted.
Where to take your entry
Artwork entries may be brought to the Citizen Herald office at 930 6th Street, Jesup, by 5 PM Friday, October 31, 2008.
Judging
Posters are judged on originality, artistic merit and expression of the theme.
Use the theme “Peace Begins with Me” to decide what to create. Make sure the size is correct and pay attention to the detail of the work.
Try to create something different from the rest.
