The contest is open to all artists, professional and amateur. The winning image will creatively depict subject matter harmonious with the festival, be it music, com- posers, Astoria, the land- scape — whatever the imagi- nation evokes. Highlights of the June 2015 Astoria Music Festival include Gaetano Donizetti’s opera “Mary Stuart,” Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s opera “The Mag- ic Flute,” works by Ludwig Van Beethoven and a cele- bration of the 150th anniver- sary of composer Jean Sibel- ius’ birth. The winning artist will be awarded $500 and two Festi- val Platinum Cards for entry to all events of the Astoria Music Festival, and the win- ning art will be highlighted in 3,000 festival programs distributed throughout the festival in June. The official poster will be reproduced for sale in a limited commemo- rative edition of 100 signed copies. The poster will be featured in festival promo- tional materials, distributed at all events and will become property of Astoria Music Festival. In the past, art for the poster has been commis- sioned by well-known West Coast artists, such as Royal Nebeker and Noel Thomas. This is the Festival’s 13th season and it has grown into a major cultural event, not only on the North Coast, in Oregon and the North- west, but it is also acknowl- edged throughout the United States. Organizers hope this poster contest will be an op- portunity to unite music and the visual arts as an inspir- ing showcase of the rich re- gional creative community. The winner of the post- er art contest will be an- nounced March 27. The top 10 finalists’ art will be displayed in a Peo- ple’s Choice exhibit at the Astoria Music Festival Of- fice/Tempo Gallery during the Astoria Second Saturday Art Walk on April 2. Visi- tors to the office may vote on their favorite, and the winner will receive a prize of $100 and two Weekend Passes to the Astoria Music Festival. 7KH RI¿FLDO $VWRULD Music Festival Poster will be unveiled at the May 2 art walk.
