PA Sign Design

CALL TO ARTISTS

Point Arena needs a new sign at our southern entrance to welcome visitors and locals to our city. Our current sign is suffering from a bit of overexposure to the elements and needs replacing. The Point Arena Merchants Association (PAMA) is excited to sponsor an open competition to procure a new design. All submissions will be entered in a virtual event open forum hosted by the Merchants Association. Members of PAMA and the public will be able to view all of the submissions at pointarena.net/pa-sign-design from now till October 31, 2020.

The submissions will be voted on by all interested parties on November 13, 2020 using (an online poll, which will be linked here) to determine the top three entries. The final selection will be made by the PAMA Board at their regularly scheduled teleconference on November 17, 2020.  Signs will be installed by December 18.

Please submit your full-color, to-scale design by October 31, 2020 via the form below. The dimensions of the sign are 12’ L X 42” W.  Before submitting your plan, please review the specs below and consider the longevity of your sign and also offer a plan for the maintenance it will require.  If your design is chosen the sign should be ready for installation by December 18, 2020.

Any inquiries may be addressed to Barbara Burkey, PAMA President at: bburkey@mcn.org
