Posterscotch - Sept. 8-10 - Raleigh NC

[skilletx]

Hopscotch Music Festival is hosting Posterscotch, a multi-day exhibition of NC artists including Ron Liberti, Chris Williams (Plastic Flame Press), James Flames, Paul Friedrich (Onion Head Monster), Brian Walsby (Manchild) and more. Each artist will be designing a limited edition poster for the festival as well as showing and selling their work during the festival.

As a key component of Posterscotch, Hopscotch is also announcing its first annual poster contest. Ten finalists will be selected by a panel of judges, and one winner will be chosen by public vote on in July. The winning design will be sold at Hopscotch, and the artist will be invited to exhibit and sell his/her work (keeping all proceeds. Hopscotch takes nothing.) alongside the other artists at Amplified Art. The winner will also receive two VIP wristbands for Hopscotch Music Festival. More details about the contest here.

Festival lineup is here. Headliners include The Flaming Lips, Guided By Voices, Drive-By Truckers, Superchunk, The Dodos, Swans, Yelawolf, J Mascis, Black Lips, Japandroids and 125 or so more.
