With a goal to bring money and interest into Ormond Beach through art, Ormond Mainstreet and the Florida Women's Art Association are partnering together to create the "Ocean Air Art Prize," a 10-day long art competition.
Local artists will submit their work to a jury who will select the top 30 pieces to be shown in 25 local businesses and civic buildings along West Granada Boulevard from U.S. 1 to A1A. During the 10-day period, the public will get a chance to vote for their favorite piece on Facebook, and three winners will be announced at a gala.
Marianne Verna, FLWAA president and Ormond Beach resident, said they're hoping to hold the event sometime in January, and that it'll be a great way for people to explore local art and businesses.
Anyone interested in submitting work for the competition, can email [email protected].
