ART CONTEST

Thank you for your support of the 22nd Annual Goodyear Cotton Bowl Art Contest. The art contest is open to all North Texas Students, and we are now accepting entries. We hope you will participate in this exciting project.

Students may enter as an individual or with a school submitting at least 50 entries total. Everything you need to get excited and to stimulate your creativity is explained here. Please click on the art card link to download and print your art card and entry information.

Keep in mind the home of the Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic is at AT&T Stadium in Arlington and hosting a Semifinal Game this year! Besides awarding some great prizes to the winners, we have devised a way to showcase each student's ability. Last year, more than 4,000 pieces of artwork were submitted to us, and we enjoyed displaying each one of them. You will find the 1st, 2nd 3rd place winners' artwork proudly displayed at their school and at AT&T Stadium in the Cotton Bowl Office all year.

The artwork will also be featured on the overhead video board at the stadium during the Classic on Saturday, December 29th. Every piece of artwork submitted by students and teachers plays a role in the game week celebration. Guests from both universities that attend the Big Play Luncheon are treated to their own personal piece of artwork. Each illustration is laminated and placed on tables through the Chantilly Ballroom of Dallas' Hilton Anatole Hotel for guests to enjoy during their meal and then take home as unique souvenirs from the Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic.

What a great way to welcome our visitors and show off our area's greatest resource...its youth!

You may also click on the link to get some visual concepts and ideas as to what to draw, including partner logos, pictures of the stadium, our trophy, etc. Please be sure to fill out the appropriate entry form (individual or class profile), so we're able to contact you if you're a winner.

The deadline for submissions is Friday, November 2.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Amy Scott at 817-892-4800 or amy@cottonbowl.com.
