Building on last year9s successful showing of art in the Village at Cold Springs model home, Hayden Homes is now sponsoring a contest for high school juniors and seniors this spring. Sisters High School (SHS) art instructor Bethany Gunnerson will soon be col- lecting artwork proposals from her junior and senior students who will be par- ticipating in the competition that will land the winner a $25,000 art scholarship from Hayden Homes, awarded upon graduation. To participate, students will first design a 2D sketch of an all-original art work. The Sisters Arts Association judges will review the designs and select a winning concept. Hayden Homes will commis- sion the piece, which will then be displayed in a Sisters com- munity model home begin- ning in summer 2019. <It is Hayden Homes9 honor to partner with Sisters High School and the Sisters Arts Association to showcase the incredible talent of Sisters Country youth,= said Geoff Harris, regional director for Hayden Homes. <We are excited to showcase a unique piece of local artwork in our model home.= Katy Wooderson, mar- keting director for Hayden Homes, said, <We have sup- ported both the high school arts program and the Sisters Arts Association in the past and were excited to collabo- rate with both to acknowledge and honor the incredible tal- ent of Sisters Country youth.= <We are committed to sup- porting the communities in which we build. We know arts make the Sisters com- munity strong. The arts are an essential building block in the SAVE UP TO $ 200 off a set of 4 tires, depending on tire size & type. While supplies last.

They’ll have a chance to show their work in Hayden Homes’ model home in Sisters. schools and are of great value to the Sisters community.= Students have until March 15 to draft their proposal, which will include a sketch of the piece along with a description of the artwork, execution strategy and supply needs. A team of judges from the Sisters Arts Association will complete their review of the artwork. Bob Burgess, board presi- dent of SAA, noted, <Hayden Homes is very conscious of the arts and of what we do, and initially got a hold of us over two years ago and asked how they can help support the arts in Sisters community.= This competition is very much like real-life design projects in which artists and designers must create propos- als and need to win the bid to get the work. <The students are so extremely fortunate in Sisters to be supported by special programs that enable them to express their own art,= said Gunnarson, <The Hayden Homes contest ups the ante and will encourage new focus and intensity in our arts stu- dents as they hone in on their unique creative style. <I9m grateful to Hayden Homes for bringing this new opportunity to our students, and not just to seniors but to juniors as well. I liked that they met with me and I was able to give my opinion on students9 needs and what would make most sense. This scholarship should let students apply the funds to not only tuition, but materi- als associated with schooling, like books and art supplies. <I really like that Sisters Arts Association is involved in choosing the winning design which ties in our local community of artists in a way that we9ve been hoping for.= There has been plenty of positive response since Gunnerson sent the Hayden Homes proposal to the junior and senior art students. She added, <This compe- tition will be done entirely on their own and not part of school projects most likely, so it is an unknown to every- one how many proposals we might receive.= The winning concept will be announced the week of March 18. The art piece will then be commissioned by Hayden Homes for comple- tion by May 10. The student artist will share their work at a special <Meet the Artist= night at the model home to kick off a season of display alongside a framed photo and bio.
