The winner of the annual Colorado Mountain Winefest Art Contest will receive a cash prize of $700.00 (to include all exclusive reproduction rights and copyrights) as well as extensive nationwide publicity and promotion by becoming the official Commemorative Poster Artist of Colorado Mountain Winefest for that year.
The winning artwork is selected by the public through online voting.
