2012 Calendar Art Contest
Cooperative Calendar Art Contest Begins
 
 
 

This contest, is in its 14th year, and provides young Hoosier artists a unique opportunity
to develop and showcase their talent. Electric Consumer — the statewide publication
for Indiana’s electric cooperatives — sponsors the program, which is open to all
kindergarten through 12th grade Indiana students. From now until March 18, 2011,
students are invited to submit original artwork reflective of the calendar month for which
their grade level is assigned. For example, high school seniors would submit artwork
for the month of December. Entries are then judged and winners from each grade selected.
Those winners then represent the specific month in the “2012 Cooperative Calendar of
Student Art.” Nine honorable mention winners are also included in a special section of the
calendar.

Not only will the contest winners have their artwork published in the calendar, which is
viewed by thousands of electric cooperative members across the state, their pieces
will be part of a special exhibition through a partnership with the Hoosier Salon.
The Hoosier Salon, headquartered in Indianapolis, is a statewide nonprofit arts
organization whose mission is to create an appreciation of visual art by promoting
Hoosier artists and their art. The salon holds an annual exhibition for artists at the
Indiana State Museum in Indianapolis. This year, for the first time, calendar contest
winners had their work displayed at the museum as part of the salon’s exhibition to
encourage young artists in Indiana. In addition, the students’ artwork will tour the
Hoosier Salon’s galleries in Indianapolis, New Harmony and Wabash.

“As school systems across America continue to cut funding to, or even eliminate, art
programs, Indiana’s electric cooperatives are thrilled to offer our young artists a forum
to spotlight their talent through our art contest and through our partnership with the
Hoosier Salon,” said Emily Schilling, Electric Consumer editor.
