\"\"The UFV Alumni Association is putting out a call to all alumni artists! If you or someone you know has a flair for artistic creativity, we encourage you to submit to the 2023 Alumni Commemorative Wine Artist competition.<\/p>\n

Each year, the Alumni Association, in partnership with Chaberton Estate Winery, features the work of one UFV alum. This tradition is now in its 19th<\/sup> year. Wine is produced in honour of the graduating class for the year, and sales of each case go towards supporting students with scholarships and bursaries.<\/p>\n

All forms of art are eligible, as long as they can be photographed and printed. This includes, but is not limited to: painting, drawing, photography, sculpture, ceramics, and printmaking. Up to three high-resolution images can be submitted, along with a 50-word description of each piece of artwork and a 70-word biography.<\/p>\n

All eligible submissions will be considered, and the winner will be decided in January.<\/p>\n

The Alumni commemorative wine artist contest winner will have their artwork and bio printed on the 2023 Alumni commemorative wine and receive a $500 honorarium.<\/p>\n

Submission deadline is January 17, 2023<\/u><\/p>\n
