Alaska Railroad solicits ideas for 2015 official art print

Deadline for submissions for the Alaska Railroad Corp. annual commemorative artwork program is Feb. 21, 2014. Artwork should be no larger than 11 inches by 17 inches and must include an Alaska Railroad theme. Of particularly interest is artwork featuring train service or railroad infrastructure at Portage, in Whittier or along the Whittier Branch (between Portage and Whittier).

ARRC retains all rights to the artwork. Once selected, Alaska Railroad will produce 750 signed and numbered prints, several thousand posters and several thousand lapel pins. The artist will receive $3,000 and will be given 10 artist proofs and 20 posters.

Submissions should be mailed to Stephenie Wheeler, Alaska Railroad Corporate Affairs, P.O. Box 107, Anchorage, AK 99510-7500; or delivered in person to ARRC Headquarters, 327 W. Ship Creek Ave., Anchorage, from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.
