Festive art sought for re-imagined Christmas Stroll
The Emerson Center for the Arts & Culture and Downtown Bozeman Association are seeking original art submissions to be used in creation of the 2020 Christmas Stroll poster.
The poster is distributed to all downtown businesses and will be featured on the cover of the “official” Christmas Stroll special issue of the Bozeman Daily Chronicle the week prior to the event. Additionally, the issue will feature an article highlighting the artist. The winner will also receive $200, courtesy of the Emerson and DBA. The artist will also be recognized on these organizations’ websites, social media and press releases several times throughout the season.
The annual Christmas Stroll will look a little different this year, but rest assured, the holiday season will still happen in Downtown Bozeman! Plan to celebrate the spirit of the season and the strength of our community in new ways. Stay tuned for more details on the re-imagined event.
Please send email submissions including a high resolution (300 dpi or greater) .tiff or .jpeg image of 2-D artwork in 18” X 24” format to education@theemerson.org by 5pm on Monday, November 9th. For further questions, call (406) 587-9797 x104.
Note: Due to safety protocols, including in-person gathering size, poster signing and Stroll Buttons will not be a part of this year’s event.
