(SAN BERNARDINO, Calif.) For high school seniors with an interest in turning their love of art into a career, The Art Institutes are sponsoring a Poster Design Competition, which awards tuition scholarships of up to $25,000 to study Graphic Design at a participating Art Institute location.
In partnership with a non-profit organization, Americans for the Arts, The Art Institutes annual Poster Design Competition is an opportunity for talented young artists at the high school level to earn a tuition scholarship to study graphic design. After earning a degree, students may launch a professional career in the graphic design field.
Deadline for entries is February 6. In all, approximately $100,000 in tuition scholarships will be awarded.
The top twelve 2009 national winning poster designs will be incorporated into a 2010 calendar. The 2008 winners are featured in a 2009 calendar that is now available by calling The Art Institute of California-Inland Empire at (909) 915-2100.
