CAVE invites all 2D artists from around the state of Colorado to submit their original artwork for a chance at becoming the 2023 Colorado Winefest Poster Artist! 


CAVE encourages all artists to enter regardless of where they reside in the state, as long as they are a Colorado resident. Entries should represent the growing Colorado wine industry. The deadline to apply to this art competition is January 6th, 2023. The winning artwork will be selected by the public through online voting and announced on January 27th. All entries will be on display at The Craig Galley in Palisade, January 13th through February 4th, 2023, for public viewing. 

The winner of the Colorado Winefest Art Contest will receive a cash prize of $700.00 (to include all exclusive reproduction rights and copyrights) as well as extensive nationwide publicity and promotion by becoming the official Commemorative Poster Artist of the 32nd Annual Colorado Mountain Winefest presented by Fisher’s Liquor Barn. The winning artwork will be featured on wine totes, t-shirts and posters, as well as local and nationwide print and digital marketing. 

Colorado Mountain Winefest is a premier event in the Grand Valley and is the main fundraiser for CAVE.
