See your art in a whole new way – on a Loudoun County wine label!
The Loudoun Heights AgriTourism Council is looking for artwork for the wine label of our 2022 Valle Tranquilo. This red wine blend is a collaboration of five Loudoun County vineyards, centered along Harpers Ferry Rd and Charles Town Pike.
Last year, we had over 50 submissions for our label and Hope Hanes’s Between Showers was selected as highlighting a lovely Loudoun County vineyard scene.
For our 2022 label, we would again like to feature an original piece of 2-dimensional art that embodies all we love about Loudoun County, the Loudoun County landscape, and the wine itself.
Representational art as well as Abstracts are welcome. If the artwork is of a vineyard, no one specific vineyard should be recognizable in the piece. No photography, please.
Details:
- · 150 cases of the wine will be produced and sold by the vineyards of the LHATC with an anticipated release date of August 2024.
- · Preference will be given to artists who live, work or paint in Loudoun County and the surrounding areas.
- · The winning artist will receive credit on the back wine label and an honorarium of $100, plus 6 bottles of the wine with their artwork featured on the label.
- · Artwork that has already been used in wine marketing is not eligible for this contest. Incomplete entries may be disqualified. The artist must be 21 or over.
- · The orientation of the label will be Vertical. You may enter artwork that is vertical, horizontal, or square, but it will be cropped to fit the proportions of the label. We reserve the right to crop, manipulate or overlay with text to suit the needs of the label design.
- · Entries are due Friday, July 28th, 2023 at midnight. No late entries will be accepted.
- · The selected artist will be notified on or about August 15th, 2023.
