SUMMER HUNGER ENDS HERE ART COMPETITION PRESENTED BY DELTA AIR LINES 2018 RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR STUDENTS AND TEACHERS
Dear Student, Imagine your artwork displayed on a 36-foot moving billboard that travels throughout South Florida! And imagine your work gives a voice to more than 248,000 children who go to bed hungry. Feeding South Florida is excited to announce its new Summer Hunger Ends Here Art Competition presented by Delta Air Lines that showcases the talent of local high school students throughout Palm Beach, Broward, Miami- Dade, and Monroe Counties. You have the opportunity to create artwork that depicts summer hunger, shedding a light on the issue that impacts far too many of South Florida s children. Although the end of a school year is typically an exciting time for most kids, summer is one of Feeding South Florida s busiest seasons. For 555,302 children throughout South Florida, not having access to free or reduced-price meals means that summer is a difficult time. Participating in the competition is simple!

Judging occurs the week of April 16, 2018 and first, second, and third place winners are announced on May 3, 2018 at Feeding South Florida s gallery night.

INSPIRATION GUIDE Colors Symbolically orange has always been associated as the color of hunger awareness. It s one of our primary brand colors, and is used as a strong visual way to raise awareness for an issue that can easily go unseen. Green signifies rebirth, regeneration, and growth. These two colors, working together as our primary color palette, symbolize our approach to the problem of hunger in America. Apart from those colors, we also use fuchsia, blue, yellow to symbolize summer hunger.

A dog sits at their feet. The second page of the Student Information and Release Form contains a legal release and a certification that the artwork is original in design and execution.

Please retain a copy for your record. Do not attach labels, ribbons, etc., to the front of the piece. Please indicate which side is up by marking arrows pointing towards the top on the back.
