ArtsOrigin.com has started an exciting contest to address the growing feeling of a populist backlash against Wall Street, Washington, and the US Congress due to rapid unemployment and financial irresponsibility. They want participants to visualize this in one of three categories: Image (painting, drawing, etc), literary (poem, blog, etc), or video.

The prizes for each category are: First place $1000, Second place $500 and Third place $250.Email entries with your name and address to contest@artsorigin.com by Oct 30, 2009. The winners will be announced Dec 1,2009 so you have some time to work on it. All submissions will be uploaded and rotated periodically on their site.
