Prince George, BC – Regional artists hoping to have their work considered for the 2015 Canada Winter Games' VIP Gifting Program have some extra time to get their submissions in…

Games officials put the call out in late April and the deadline was supposed to be yesterday, but has been extended until May 19th.

Northern BC artists are being invited to submit photos of original pieces they wish to be considered as a commemorative gift.  A submission should include:

• an artist bio, CV, and artist statement
• photos of the commemorative gift submission – up to three images per submission, in high res jpeg format only
• the cost of the commemorative gift on a per item basis (with pricing for bulk quantities, if applicable)

Short-listed artists will be asked to submit physical samples of their proposed gift piece for review.  The chosen piece will be given to special guests in their VIP packages throughout over the 18-days of the 2015 Canada Winter Games.
