KXT Play it Forward Artist Contest

Calling all artists!

 

KXT is looking to discover the next artist to be featured for our Spring Membership Campaign! The winning design will appear on a KXT t-shirt and may also be featured on a pint glass, tote bag, coffee mug or other thank you gifts created for members of KXT and related to their lifestyle interests. And to top it off, the winning designer will also receive $1,000!

Submit your original design by April 17, 2019 to be entered in the contest. Submissions must be sent to [email protected]

The theme for this KXT Artist Contest is “Play it Forward,” and KXT is looking for a design with the brand spirit of KXT’s ‘Republic of Music’ that is expressed through the lens of your unique style and vision.

To help get you started, here’s a feel for the KXT brand:

KXT is “The Republic of Music” and represents the community of listeners, members, artists and other supporters who make KXT and the North Texas music scene special. In The Republic of Music, everyone is welcome, everyone is equal and everyone has a voice. It’s the non-physical place where we’re all about the music — where listeners, members, artists and more come together to make KXT possible.

*The final design submission needs to be a vector-based .eps or .pdf file, and must be able to be screen printed on items using no more than 2 colors.

Again, your original design must be submitted by April 17, 2019. KERA and KXT staff will vote for selected artwork on April, 19, 2019. The winning design will be chosen based on the number of votes. The winning designer will be notified by April 22, 2019.

Please be sure to see the KXT Artist Contest terms and conditions.

Thank you for your support and we are eager to see your creations!
