ZOZOBRA News:
SANTA FE — The Time is Now, the Place is Santa Fe and the Man of the Hour is ZOZOBRA!
The Kiwanis Club of Santa Fe is excited to announce a new Call For Artists to design the Official 2022 Zozobra Adult and Youth Posters and T-shirt images.
The 2022 Zozobra Decades Project leads Zozobra right into the 1990s, the era of plaid shirts and Pokémon! Haven’t you always wanted to be “Friends” with Santa Fe’s biggest malcontent?
“Everyone in New Mexico wants to be a part of the Zozobra festivities! What better way is there than an art contest for New Mexico artists, the young and the young at heart, to create their vision of Santa Fe’s favorite icon for our official 2022 adult and student posters and t-shirts? We can’t wait to see what happens when Zozobra encounters the talent of New Mexico’s amazing artists!” Zozobra Event Chair Ray Sandoval said.
