POSTAL COMPETITION:
There are NO PRIZES for the postal competition. We prefer that you come in person, but for those who are unable to come in person to the competitions but still wish to participate... All entries will be shown on a projecter in the art gallery and winners of the postal competition will be announced when we announce the winners of the in person competition during the festival (on stage), but we will also post internet announcements of all of the winners as well.
Friendly Competition is Healthy Competition:
The festival is a place of warmth & openness, it is meant to be a safe space for people to explore themselves, and life. To blossom and flower. To grow, to heal, to change for the better. When you enter the competition, please don't approach it as a stressful experience, but rather, like the energy of a music jam, explore it as an opportunity to challenge yourself and be inspired by your beautiful surroundings. Have fun with it, because it isn't about winning, it's about the growth you will do while discovering yourself in the process of painting your heart's song.
