Design the T-Shirt for the 2012 Event!

Background

For years, we have had Brooks Graphics help with the design for the shirts which have been very popular and consistently used a running pepper theme. However for 2011, we want to open the creative process to the schools to get the best ideas out to represent the festival. The Chile Pepper is in its 24th year and its purpose is to raise funds for high school cross country programs while creating a festival atmosphere for Open, High School and College competitors. Over 4,800 runners participated in 2011.

Guidelines

  • Colorful and exciting original artwork which promotes cross country and the 24th Chile Pepper Festival in Fayetteville, AR on October 13, 2012.
  • A clever design that is easily understood and easily reproduced on different media outlets, especially a t-shirt front of 11” wide by 10” tall maximum.
  • Artwork to be used for promotion of event including, but not limited to; T-shirt, web, print and posters and suitable for mass media publication, this family event and runners of all ages.
  • Artist acknowledged and school recognized in media communications.
