Welcome to The Norwalk Art Space's 23-24 Petty-Drayton call for art! In this call to action, we ask that you create a design that will be printed on T-shirts to be worn by our music students during their concerts! The design should represent and embody Tom Petty’s and Bernard Drayton’s likenesses (see image). We encourage you to listen to their music and research their extensive careers to gain inspiration and direction. The design should be easily understood by the average person.

Deadline is November 17th

Age limit: 18 and younger

Photos should be attached in JPG format and as high resolution as possible (Don't photograph your work in direct sunlight; you're looking for diffused natural light. There should be no dappled light or sunbeams across your work. Avoid deep shadows and dappling effects. For optimal lighting, take photographs of your artwork outside on a bright but cloudy day.)

Winners will receive a prize of $150
Recognition on all social media and press materials
