To celebrate the 10th Art Can Contest, Pabst Blue Ribbon invites you to create and submit your Pabst Blue Ribbon inspired, two-toned Can Design! The Pabst Blue Ribbon Art Can Contest has put original art on over 300 million cans and has awarded over $100,000 to emerging artists all over the United States.
For their 10th anniversary celebration, Pabst Blue Ribbon is going above and beyond to offer not one but ten (10) prizes of $10,000 USD to ten (10) winning designs from all across the world! That’s right, we’re opening up the Art Can contest to artists outside of the US this time too. We say, cheers to that!
Think outside of the can; create your own PBR-inspired, two-toned style art that speaks to your creativity and the free spirit of PBR.
The top 25 artworks selected by the official judging panel during the Early Entry Deadline and the Final Deadline will then be featured on the Pabst Blue Ribbon official website and move into public/community voting for the final top ten prizes of $10k each.
- Participants MUST be 21+. There are NO exceptions. Bummer.
- Your artwork should be two-toned, in Pantone color code: PMS 280 and PANTONE 000C. If you include gradients/shading, your artwork should have either a transparent or silver base in line with the Pabst Blue Ribbon branding.
- The aluminum of the can will show through in your artwork where there are transparent or silver parts (ie. no ink used where the aluminum will be showing through in your artwork).
- Keep the PBR brand logo prominent within your concept. You may tweak the logo and add your own spin and flair to it, but make sure it’s still recognizable!
- Make sure the brand logo feels prominent enough to be recognizable on shelves or in a dimly-lit bar.
- Use the PBR can art template to help with formatting your artwork. The art can template is just a guide. You are not required to submit your art with the template but it is highly encouraged.
- Other than the required two-tone color scheme, feel free to think outside of the box. Take risks! Ultimately, be true to yourself and your creative identity. When selecting a winner, PBR is ultimately investing in YOU.
