Alumni Commemorative Wine Artist competition

The Alumni Commemorative Wine is a highly anticipated annual tradition at UFV. The wine is produced in honour of the graduating class and is sold throughout UFV communities as a fundraiser for the Alumni Association’s student monetary awards.

All forms of art are eligible, as long as they can be photographed. The artist simply has to send in up to three high resolution images of their work, along with a 50 word description of each piece of artwork and a 70 word biography. All eligible submissions will be considered, and the winner will be decided in January.

Submission deadline is January 11, 2016.

This is a great opportunity for some tremendous exposure. The winning artist’s work will be rendered onto the 2016 Alumni Commemorative wine labels and their bio featured on the back label. The artist is honoured at the UFV Alumni Association’s Commemorative Wine launch event in April, 2016 (TBA); through a write up in the University magazine, Skookum; and featured on the Alumni website.
