Call for Artists: United States Mint Artistic Infusion Program The United States Mint invites artists nationwide to participate in a re naissance of American coin and medal design. The Artistic Infusion Pro gram has been created to enrich and invigorate the design of United States coins and medals by developing a pool of up to 20 professional artists and up to 20 college and graduate-level art students in sculpture, printmaking, engraving, graphic design, drawing and other visual arts, who will be invited to create and submit new designs for selected coin and medal pro grams throughout the year. The National Endowment for the Arts will assist the Mint with the ap plication evaluation and selection process. Applications should be post marked no later than January 9, 2004. Artists selected for the program will attend a United States Mint-sponsored orientation on February 19-20, 2004, in Philadelphia to learn about the history of coin and medal design, the coin-making process and upcom ing design opportunities. The United States Mint was created in 1792 to produce circulating coins for the nation. Today, the Mint creates popular coins such as the 50 State Quarters Program, the new nickel series, and commemorative coins and congressional medals that honor outstanding persons and events of spe cial meaning to the American people. Application packets (which include program details, eligibility require ments, artistic criteria, and detailed application guidelines) are available on the United States Mint's website at www.usmint.gov artists.
