Zozobra Call For Artists 2023 - Ruidoso.com
The Burning of Zozobra
Calling all artists! The Kiwanis Club of Santa Fe has announced the 2023 call for artists to design the Official 99th Burning of Zozobra adult and youth posters and T-shirt images.
2023 takes Zozobra into the era of the 2000s and 2010s as we complete the final year of the ten-year Zozobra Decades Project with summer’s hottest party. Y2K scare tactics may have been a bust, but Zozobra never missed a beat at spreading his gloom over the new millennium!
“Everyone in New Mexico wants to be a part of the Zozobra festivities! What better way to share the celebration than an art contest for New Mexico artists, the young and the young at heart, to create their vision of Santa Fe’s favorite icon for our official 2023 adult and student posters and t-shirts? When Zozobra encounters the talent of New Mexico’s amazing artists, the results are guaranteed to be incredible!” says Ray Sandoval, Zozobra event chair.
