The KGI community is invited to submit a piece of art for the October 2022 Founder’s Day celebration.
In celebration of KGI’s 25th Anniversary, a Founder’s Day event on October 7 themed, “KGI: The Next 25 Years,” will showcase the past, present, and future of innovation.
Students, alumni, prospective students, parents, friends, faculty, staff, and community members are invited to create and submit a piece of art for the Founder’s Day celebration. The art can be in any medium (painting, comics, video, graphic design, photography, clay, marble, charcoal, poetry, short story, music, etc.).
We are looking for artwork that captures the spirit of art and science. Show us what the life sciences, biotech, biology, or KGI is in your art. Can you visually represent or tell us about a KGI program? Or tell us what KGI and the life sciences field will look like in the next 25 years. Please make it for a general audience, but make it fun and appealing.
The artwork will be used to publicize the event as well as be placed around campus as part of our Founder’s Day celebration.
Prizes of $250 will be given out for the following:
* All awards, prizes, and/or gifts given by KGI are taxable to the recipient, students, and non-students alike. KGI staff cannot give tax advice. In order to determine if this award is taxable, please consult your tax advisor
Provide a small general explanation of your artwork or theme. If applicable, explain how it relates to KGI, KGI programs, or life sciences in the next 25 years. Include your name, KGI association, academic program (if applicable), graduation year (if applicable), hometown, and local mailing address and phone number.
NOTE: If you are working in a group, only one person from the group needs to complete the form and upload the artwork.
Artwork submission deadline: Tuesday, September 6, 2022.
Faculty, staff, friends, parents, alumni, and students will be invited to vote for their favorite designs.
Popular vote and opinions of the judging panel will be considered, but the final selection rests with a council if none of the submissions are selected. KGI reserves the right to use the winning design in other publications (postcards, T-shirts, etc.) if desired.
