COVER ART

We are always looking for covers for our issues from children who are from Boulder County. Boulder Valley Credit Union is our cover sponsor and will exhibit the artwork for three months. The artist will also receive a check for $50 presented in their school class room. We look for brightly colored pieces that will reproduce well.

TIPS:

Portraits work well many times. Vertical formats fit the shape of our paper best. Please email your artwork to Jennifer at for consideration.

Mailed originals may not be returned.

Artists work chosen for a cover will have their work displayed at the Boulder Valley Credit Union on 55th & Arapahoe in Boulder for the issue's three month period. The artist will receive a PICTURE PERFECT award presented in their school.

Artists chosen will also receive a free scheduled photo shoot with Raye Harris Photography in Erie.
