The Jacksonville Jaguars are on the lookout for local artistic talent for their 2024 DUUUVAL Designs Series, an innovative fusion of sports and local art through game-day posters. Local artists stand a chance to have their artistry featured prominently during game days.
This venture not only highlights the artistic talents in Jacksonville, but it also echoes the Jaguars’ commitment to community engagement and local culture promotion. The winning design will both adorn the stadium walls and represent Jacksonville’s football fervor.
The Jaguars aim to strengthen their integration with the local community through this initiative, boosting pride and unity. The selection process promises to display a rich variety of artistic styles, mirroring the city’s diverse cultural spirit.
The works of the selected artists will enhance the game-day vibe for the team and fans alike, intertwining athleticism and creativity. The submission deadline is coming up, offering the chance to artists to showcase their passion for their local football team.
Artists from Jacksonville’s seven-county area are encouraged to partake, aiming to develop a limited-edition poster capturing the essence of a home game at EverBank Stadium.
Promoting Jacksonville talent through game-day posters
Different visual art forms are welcome, excluding artworks produced by artificial intelligence.
Chris Gargani, VP of Sales and Marketing for the Jaguars, painted the picture of the shared emotional, disciplined, and kinetic nature of sports and traditional art. Gargani hopes the DUUUVAL Designs initiative will highlight the creative potential in both artistic and athletic spheres of Jacksonville, fostering unity and mutual admiration.
To entice artists to join the DUUUVAL Designs Series, chosen artists will receive a $300 stipend, tickets to a home match, and the opportunity to sign their poster at the Flex Field Fan Entertainment Zone. They’ll gain substantial exposure on Jaguars’ social media and official website.
Artists intrigued by this opportunity can send their proposals and portfolios over to the DUUUVAL Designs website. Application should contain full name, contact details, brief description of their style, and a link to their online portfolio. A rigorous panel, comprising local professional artisans and DUUUVAL Designs team, will review the applications. All submissions must adhere strictly to DUUUVAL Designs’ guidelines.
