Spring Contest – Planter Project
May 18, 2019 @ 9:30 am - 5:00 pm

Join your neighbors in building Long Beach’s new Oceanview Ave. “Garden Gallery”. The reconstructed wooden planters at each intersection will feature a unique painting by a local artist. Winning entries will be completed together during a day of fun in the West End.
The Fabric of Our Community
Artists are encouraged to create a design that draws inspiration from patterns and textiles. Whether abstract or reflective of life in our city by the sea (the beach and beyond), winning designs will be woven together along the one mile stretch of Oceanview Avenue, showing how shared art and community gardens color “The Fabric of Our Community”. Be creative!
Artists must be age 18 or older. Teams are permitted. All residents are encouraged to get involved! Take a walk down Oceanview and support your local artists.
To Enter:
Email ehammer@longbeachny.gov with subject line “Oceanview Planters” for instructions and entry form. A three-panel design concept which will cover three full sides of the planter (dimensions: 42” x 42” x 36” high) is required with completed entry form. Winning entries will be selected and each assigned a planter. A non-refundable entry fee of $25 is required for consideration. All entries must be received by Friday, May 3rd.
