ASU Holland Symposium Contest Winner

Halstead, who specializes in graphic design, won first place and a $500 prize for his digital print, “Pigskin Pledge.”

All contest entries will be on public display March 1-23 in the ASU Art Gallery, Room 193 of the Carr Education-Fine Arts (EFA) Building, 2602 Dena Drive.  Halstead and all of the student participants will be honored during an awards ceremony on Wednesday, March 7, from 4-5 p.m. in the gallery.  Both the exhibition and the awards ceremony are open free to the public. 

Contest entries were judged on creativity, originality, depth of thought, technical competency and relation to the “Sports and American Values” theme of the 2011 E.
