54th Annual Bluemont Fair Seeks Poster/T-Shirt Design

Organizers of the 54th Annual Bluemont Fair, taking place September 21 & 22, 2024, in historic Western Loudoun County, VA, invite artists of all ages and abilities to submit designs for this year’s unique Poster and T-shirt. The theme for 2024 is: “The frogs, lightning bugs, turtles and/or salamanders of Bluemont.” Artists are encouraged to focus on one or any combination of these charming native creatures, which are abundant in Bluemont’s thriving natural environment.

Artists’ interpretations can be as broad or narrow as they choose and may use any medium. However, the design and colors should be suitable for reproduction on the Bluemont Fair’s distinctive poster (14”x22”), T-shirt, and merchandise. The request is for the design only, whether as an illustration or graphic. Details will be added after the winning design is selected. The artist’s name should be written on the back of the artwork, along with contact information and a brief biography for inclusion in publicity. The selected artist’s name will be printed on the poster, and their work will be acknowledged in Fair publicity. Multiple entries per artist are permitted.

Artwork should be mailed to: Bluemont Fair Poster Design Competition, P.O. Box 217, Bluemont, Virginia, 20135 or emailed to: chair@bluemontfair.org    Artwork must be received by April 19, 2024.   To arrange to hand-deliver art please contact chair@bluemontfair.org Individuals requesting return of their submission should also include a self-addressed, stamped mailing receptacle.  For further information call 540-554-2367 (vm), or email chair@bluemontfair.org
