Out-of-home (OOH) advertising firm Newad is again inviting Canadians to vote for the year’s best visual art. The winners of the Art Here Contest will be announced on May 4 and featured on the company’s indoor posters in major cities.

A dedicated website (www.arthere.ca[1]) currently features 35 finalists, which were shortlisted earlier this year from a total of 1,525 images—including digital art, graphic designs, illustrations, paintings, installations, sculptures and photography—submitted by 1,010 participants. The deadline for voting, which will determine the top 15 winners, is April 17.

“We are excited about how original and creative the images were this year,” says Yaëlle-Philippe August, Newad’s director of marketing. “These submissions confirm the value of giving artists a major opportunity to showcase their work.”
