Register HERE for the Daffodil Days “Spring in Bloom” Art Contest!

    TAVI invites you to create your interpretation of “Spring in Bloom” in our community. Here are the guidelines:
    • Contest is open to all Allentown and Upper Freehold residents, ages 4 – 18, as well as Millstone residents who are students at Allentown High School.
    • Artwork should reflect the theme “Spring in Bloom.”
    • All artwork must be original – you cannot use third-party artwork or materials or anything that was created by someone else. Artwork must be individually created (collaborations are not allowed) and must not have been previously exhibited or entered in any contest or competition.
    • Artwork must be created by hand using crayons, colored pencils, ink pens, markers or paint.
    • The Artwork’s measurements should not be larger than 15.7 to 21.7 inches on either side but no smaller than 8.5 to 11 inches. For drawings on paper, the color, material and shape of the paper can be chosen freely but should not be thicker than 5mm.
    • Collage or cutout pictures are allowed as part of simple drawings, but any materials or techniques that require special care in handling, such as Artwork that includes items that are not securely affixed and/or Artwork that is not protected from potential smudging, are not allowed.
    • Submissions must be received by noon on Sunday, April 3, 2022 in order to be displayed at Allentown Methodist Church that afternoon. All entries must include the name, address and telephone number of the artist on the reverse side of the entry only.  No identifying information may appear on the front of the artwork.
    • Artworks will be placed in three categories: ages 4 – 8, 9 – 13 and 14 – 18.
    • The public will be invited to view the artwork from 1 – 3 pm, Sunday, April 3, 2022 in Allentown Methodist Church. All attending will be invited to select the entry which they believe exhibits the most creativity and originality, and has the best overall appearance, based on the theme “Spring in Bloom.”
    • Awards will be presented in Allentown Methodist Church during the concert “Springtime in Venice” beginning at 3 pm.  All entrants are encouraged to be present during the concert.
    • Artwork must be taken home by the entrants after the concert and by 5 pm, Sunday, April 3, 2022. Any unclaimed artwork becomes the property of TAVI.
