Lentil festival seeks poster entries

Pullman’s National Lentil Festival is seeking art submissions for its 2013 commemorative poster. The artwork will be used for all festival merchandise and advertising for the 2013 event and will be submitted for awards from the Western Festivals & Events Association as well as the International Festivals & Events Association.

Art can be submitted in any form the artist deems appropriate; originals, prints or photos. Entries should depict how the artist wants to present the work on the poster and include contact information.

The selected artist will receive $1,500 as compensation and will work with the festival director and committee to develop the final idea. Once the artwork is completed, it will go to a designer for the poster layout process.

Deadline for artwork submissions is Jan. 7, 2013, to National Lentil Festival, 415 N. Grand Ave., Pullman, 99163.
