Each year in preparation for the Pops, we put out a public Call to Student Artists across the region from 5th through 12th grade, seeking their original artistic creations for the official commemorative t-shirt design. The winning design is worn by all volunteers on the day of the concert, and is available for purchase during the show. The student who creates the winning design receives a cash award, as well as donation to their school’s art department. Second and third place winners also receive a small cash award and a donation to their art department.
