The city of Coconut Creek is currently on the lookout for local artistic talent to grace the cover of its Fiscal Year 2026 Budget, with submissions open until the end of December. The winning entry won't just get the budget cover; it will also feature on the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) and the Popular Annual Financial Report (PAFR), magnifying the scope of exposure for the chosen piece of artwork, as reported by TAPinto Coconut Creek.
The city encourages contestants to let their imaginations run wild, utilizing any medium from traditional methods to digital techniques to mixed media, as detailed in the city’s announcement. With the freedom to create using such a broad spectrum of artistic techniques, the city aims to find a design that truly resonates with the spirit of Coconut Creek, though as their search continues the combination of “inspire, innovate, and capture the essence of progress and vision” still remains at the forefront of their criteria.
The selected artist won't just have the honor of their work promoting the fiscal plan; they'll be formally acknowledged at a City Commission meeting, highlighted across social media platforms and they'll even get the chance to sit down for lunch with the city's mayor, per details from the city's Instagram post.
The final day to submit artwork to [email protected] is December 31, at 11:59 PM. All interested parties can find necessary submission details and forms at the city's community relations website, Coconut Creek government's Instagram posted.
