Earlier this year 8th Continent had a package re-design and we wanted to share our new sunny perspective with everyone! The best way we thought to spread some sunshine was to give back to schools all across the country. So we created a contest where kids and adults could submit drawings of their own suns for a chance to support the K-12 school of their choice.
From thousands of suns, 50 winners were voted on and 50 others were selected by a panel. The schools of the winning suns will receive a $1,000 Blick Art Materials gift card to redeem for art supplies.
We want to extend a special thanks to Blick Art Material. They’ve been devoted to enriching student’s art, learning, and life experiences for 100 years!
Also, a few of the winning suns will be featured on the side of our packaging to be seen nation wide around November!
For those participants who’s suns weren’t selected, they are still amazing and helped a great deal in spreading awareness for the need to support the arts in education.
Lastly, we want to send a giant congratulations to all of the winners and thank everyone for participating in the Draw Your Own Sun Contest! Click here to view all of the winners!
Keep spreading sunshine!
