SHEFFIELD, MA, September 19, 2022. Dewey Memorial Hall is seeking submissions for stylized depictions of the historic hall. The hall has been drawn many times over the 130 years since it has been built, mostly highly detailed pen and ink drawings.
Dewey Hall board president Beth Carlson stated, “We are looking for a new image that is much simpler and cleaner. We thought it would be fun to have a contest. JWS Art Supplies is providing a $200 gift card as a prize, which should make the contest appealing to artists of all ages.”
Previous drawings of Dewey Memorial Hall have been highly detailed pen and ink drawings, which Carlson says "are lovely but don’t reproduce well". The winning image may be used for a new logo and Dewey Hall custom merchandise. The contest rules include many mediums—the main requirement is for a simplified conceptual image which focuses on planes, angles, and shapes instead of fine details. The deadline to enter is October 31, 2022.
