Tips & Advice
- Ensure artwork is submitted in landscape (horizontal) orientation on letter-size paper, and avoid matting or mounting.
- Remember to include one of the required phrases ('City of Doral', 'For all the Right Reasons', or 'Doral Shines') within the artwork itself.
- Double-check submission deadlines: artwork in person by Monday, December 2nd at 4:00 PM, and digital copies or registration forms via email by 12:00 PM the same day.
- Original artwork should not include the student's name, school name, or company names to ensure a blind judging process.
- The artwork must be original and created using any media, but computer-generated designs will not be accepted.
