VIA Metropolitan Transit’s annual Youth Art Contest kicks off March 1, 2010, and all students in the San Antonio area are eligible to participate.
The theme for this year’s contest is “Riding VIA is the Smart Way, S.A.”, and students can illustrate this theme using any medium as long as an official poster board is used. The 11” x 17” poster boards are free and can be picked up beginning Monday, March 1 at VIA’s administration offices (800 West Myrtle).
VIA’s Youth Art Contest is open to all students in grades pre-K through 12, and submissions will be accepted through April 9, 2010. The first place winner from each grade level will receive a $100 savings bond, each second place winner will get a $50 savings bond, and the Best of Show winner will receive a $500 savings bond. Each winner will also receive a backpack from Radio Disney AM 1160, and they will be honored at an awards luncheon scheduled for May 12 at Aldaco’s in Sunset Station.
VIA’s Youth Art Contest is sponsored by Radio Disney AM 1160, the San Antonio Express-News, and Aldaco’s at Historic Sunset Station. For more information on the contest, call Jerri Ann Jones at 362-2381.
