 Neewollah 2010 Festival Logo Unveiled!
"Somethin’ Special” is the theme of the artwork which will herald the Neewollah 2010 festivities this fall. The Neewollah Logo Committee is excited to announce that this year’s winner of the Neewollah Logo Contest is Eric Thompson of Kansas City, Missouri.
"It is exciting to see the Neewollah theme come to life”, stated Fred Meier, 2010 Neewollah Generalissimo. "Thompson’s design fits nicely with this year’s theme, musical, and Neewollah activities”.
Thompson’s black and white design was set to color by Janet Demo and features the traditional colors of the largest annual celebration in the state of Kansas. The art will be prominently displayed on advertisements, banners, t-shirts, programs and official Neewollah merchandise.
"This year’s contest was made up of twenty-six entries,” stated Pam Passauer, Logo Committee Member. "We received a wide variety of ideas and everyone who entered did a wonderful job. It is a nice feeling to be able to participate in the choosing of this widely seen design.”
Thompson has enjoyed attending the Neewollah celebration for the past several years and particularly enjoys the excitement of the Grand Parade. As the winner of the 2010 Neewollah Logo contest, Thompson will receive a $100 cash prize.
A 2005 graduate of Kansas State University, Thompson serves as the art director for VML, Inc., a digital marketing agency headquartered in Kansas City, Missouri. "It is going to be really cool to see my design on all the Neewollah products,” commented Thompson. "I am extremely honored to have my logo design chosen.”
Thank you Eric for participating in this year’s logo contest and kicking off the 2010 Neewollah season!
