Entering Art Contests in 2009

Why participate in art contests? There are several good reasons, including: exposure, promotion, experience, and prizes.

Winning, or even placing well, in an art contest can get you recognition and exposure for your artwork, especially if the contest exhibits or publishes your artwork.

If you are building your portfolio and artistic resume, listing contest awards can set you apart from the crowd. Many contests also offer prizes like cash, art supplies, or even scholarships.

Be sure to do a little research before entering any 2009 art contest to be sure it isn't a scam. Read the Terms and Entry Rules to find out exactly how your submissions may be used. Use common sense when entering any art contest during 2009.
