Brewers Launch Roberto Clemente Art Contest

MILWAUKEE – Young Brewers fans, it’s time to grab your crayons, markers and art supplies and get the creative juices flowing. The Milwaukee Brewers today launched the Roberto Clemente Art Contest, encouraging Brewers fans under 18 years old residing in Wisconsin to create an original artistic expression that captures the values that embody Clemente – helping others, sportsmanship and community involvement.

The top three artists and their families will be invited to American Family Field to be recognized on-field, with their artwork displayed on the Brewers video board. The Grand Prize winner will throw out a ceremonial first pitch.

Beginning today, fans can complete the digital entry form, one entry per person, available at brewers.com/Clemente. Kids are encouraged to get creative, take inspiration from the life and values of Roberto Clemente and create an original piece of art. The art can be designed in any shape or form with no limitations to size or color and may include painting, drawing or rendering.

The winning entries will be recognized on the field on Roberto Clemente Day, Tuesday, September 16, when the Brewers take on the Los Angeles Angels at 6:40 p.m.

• Grand Prize: Four Field Level game tickets, on-field recognition, throw out the ceremonial first pitch and a gift bag filled with Brewers memorabilia
• 2nd Place: Four Club Level game tickets, on-field recognition and a gift bag filled with Brewers memorabilia
• 3rd Place: Four Club Level game tickets, on-field recognition and a gift bag filled with Brewers memorabilia
