Second competition round is open

The second round of the Peninsula Art Competition is now open with entries closing on August 14 and also a reminder that entries for the first round close on July 17.

Peninsula News in conjunction with Ettalong Beach Arts and Crafts Centre is running the competition.

Each month, artists will have the opportunity to create or submit a piece based on "activities, people, places or events that typify the Peninsula in 2004".

The winner each month will win a certificate, a voucher for $50 worth of art and craft supplies from Art and Craft RIOT at Erina Fair, will published in the Peninsula News and will also be showcased by Gosford Council in its Peninsula Libraries during the following month.

The competition aims to "capture memories" of the way the Peninsula is now for future generations.

There are no restrictions on the choice of media other than size, due to storage and display facilities.

Only one entry per person is allowed each month and entry is open to all.

Entries for the July competition should be dropped into the Ettalong Beach Arts and Crafts Centre, in Kitchener Park, corner Picnic Parade and Maitland Bay Dr, between 10am and noon on July 17 and for the August prize on August 14.
