Attention all Artists, those whom love to draw, color, oil paint, watercolor, color pencils, crayons, well you get the idea, anyway, it’s that time to enter your artwork into the Fillmore May Festival Poster Art Contest. This year the winner will take home $50.00! here are no age limits, we just ask that you do your artwork in color and on a 8x11 piece of paper.

This year’s theme is “Bringing Back Tradition”. This festival has been going on for 97 years now. It first started as a Farmers Market downtown and now has grown to be one of the largest Events in Ventura County. The 4 day Festival offers a carnival, food, arts & crafts, games, bingo, live entertainment & bands, train rides and a parade. The May Festival offers that small town enjoyment for the entire family . Not to mention our town is one of the last best smallest towns in Southern California.

The Deadline to turn in your work in is Friday April 24, 2009. Please take your work to the Fillmore Chamber Office located on Hwy 126 at 557 Ventura Street or call Cindy. The winner will be awarded after the parade in front of City Hall.

If you have any questions please feel free to call Cindy Jackson-Bires at 805-524-7706. Good luck and have fun!
