S. Oregon Kite Festival seeks “Wonders of Wind” logo
The Southern Oregon Kite Festival Committee has selected “Wonders of Wind” as the theme for the 26th Annual Southern Oregon Kite Festival. The festival will be held the third weekend of July 2018. Logo design submissions will be accepted until October 20th and the SOKF Committee will select the winning design. The logo is featured on the front of the kite festival t-shirts and on the cover of the 98-page SOKF program. The original art piece will be donated by the artist to the SOKF, then framed and auctioned to the highest bidder at the festival’s Auction Banquet. The proceeds from the auction help to defray the cost of bringing the kite festival to the community of Brookings-Harbor. The logo artist will be acknowledged in the festival program as well as in kite festival news releases.
Artists who would like to submit their “Wonders of Wind” logo designs should contact John Curtis, SOKF Chairman, at 541-813-1969 or jcurt50@gmail.com. To learn more about the Southern Oregon Kite Festival, please visit www.sokf.org.
