The search has begun for a talented local artist to design the medals for the 2021 Canada Summer Games.
Artists over the age of 18 are invited to submit three pieces of original artwork and a maximum 250 word submission outlining their artistic experience, connection to Niagara, and how their vision for the medals aligns with the spirit of the games.
Applicants are not being asked to create original medal designs at this time, only the semi-finalists will be asked to do that.
Submissions can be dropped off at the Games' offices at 25 Corporate Park Drive in St. Catharines or sent via email to vwikston@2021canadagames.ca by Thursday, February 7th at midnight.
Hundreds of athletes will be coming to Niagara in August of 2021 to participate in a full slate of events including rowing, swimming, and lacrosse.
