The Co-op is hosting an art contest! Deadline Extended to July 22nd!

Thursday, 09 July 2009 18:34

Get your artwork on the Riverwest Co-op's very own blend of coffee beans roasted by the Just Coffee Cooperative in Madison, WI. This will be a part of Just Coffee's Co-op to Co-op campaign, or “C2C”.The entire productivity line for the coffee will be all from cooperatives, from the growers all the way into your hand.

At the celebratory block party on Saturday, August 8th, we will invite the attendees to vote on label art submission, so get yours in now! We'll have cool prizes for the first place and two runner-up entries. The first place winner will have their artwork on the coffee bags that you will soon be able to purchase at the Riverwest Co-op.

    Guidelines for the art:
  • A drawing, painting or graphic art. Choose any theme you like - either coffee, Riverwest, cooperatives, or anything at all really, just be creative!
  • 10"x12" or 5"x6" (if chosen, it will be shrunk to fit on the label).
  • The deadline for artwork submissions is Wednesday, July 22nd.

Submissions will be up for public viewing for an initial ballot until the date of the block party. The top choices will then be voted on at the block party. All entries may be submitted in print or via high res .jpg via email to the Riverwest Co-op. Hand delivery of your artwork is best but if you choose to email please send to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
