For Kids
The mission of the Spokane Fall Folk Festival is to present the diversity of our community through traditional music, dance, and the arts. 2023 is the 28th year of the Festival, which has attracted as many as 5,000 attendees each year. The Festival is seeking graphic designs to use in their promotional materials: poster, T-shirts, buttons, and other advertising for the upcoming 2023 Festival, scheduled for November 11 and 12, at Spokane Community College.
The design should reflect the spirit of the Festival. Designs are encouraged to include elements of Spokane’s diversity, history, and geologic landmarks, but are not required. Artwork will be judged on design quality, color, originality, and ease of use on multiple graphic forms.
