The 2023 Davenport International Cartoon Contest has opened the window for accepting submissions.
Announcing the 2023 Davenport International Cartoon Contest! A festival that honors a famous Political Cartoonist seems almost naked without some kind of competition focused on that endeavor. To that end, the International Cartoon Contest has returned! Also, since we have not changed either our entry fees or our prizes in over 30 years, we have sweetened the pot somewhat. Here are the official rules: Anyone may enter the contest. Grand Prize: $750 * First: $500 * Second: $300 * Third: $200 * (5) People’s Choice: Ribbon You may submit as many entries as you wish, but each entry must be accompanied by its own entry blank and fee. If paying with the new PayPal option, include the name you submitted your cartoon under in the Special Instructions box, if different. The entry fee is $25.00 (US Dollars), for each cartoon entered.* Please make checks, money orders or bank drafts to: “Homer Davenport Community Festival.”
(* Note: Entries without an entry fee may be displayed, but will not be judged or be eligible for a cash prize.) Entry deadline: All entries must be received by 5:00 pm Friday, July 28, 2023. (Official entry forms on the back of the Rules.)
