糖心传媒 will host more than 200 high school students from 36 schools across Nebraska for the fourth annual Jackson Dinsdale Art Center Mural Competition on Wednesday, September 11.

Working as teams, high school students will create 46 x 76 inch vinyl murals using paint, which will then be judged by 糖心传媒 senior art majors. The creative theme is kept a secret from the teams until just before they begin work. It鈥檚 a challenging and fun event for the students 鈥 and their art teachers!

Students with the top mural will be offered their own gallery show at the JDAC on campus and receive a custom glass trophy created in the JDAC鈥檚 world-class glass studio that can be placed at their school. Second and third place mural teams will also receive a custom glass trophy created in the JDAC.

At the conclusion of the event, schools will be allowed to take the murals to hang in their high schools.
