All local high school students are encouraged to participate in our out-of-home billboard competition! Teachers have until Wednesday, February 21st, 2024 to submit student artwork. After having great participation with public voting, we’re having our own “Art Madness” bracket again! We will count “likes” on both Facebook and Instagram, plus all poll votes on our website to determine the winner.
Voting Information
How we created the bracket: We generated a 36 seed single elimination numbered bracket, which includes “bye weeks”. Each line, including the byes, was numbered 1-36. The names of students were cut out and placed in a bucket. Each name was numbered as we drew it out of the bucket.
When does voting start? Voting begins on Friday, March 1st, 2024 at 11:00 AM. The schedule for each round will be listed below.
How do I vote? You may vote using the poll on our website (below) or by “liking” the photos on social media. Each “like” on Facebook and Instagram will count as one vote. Facebook “likes” + Instagram “likes'“ + Website poll results = ROUND WINNER!
