CerMark employee’s will pick the top 10 photos of marked items to be displayed at the booth during the ARA show, March 2012. Creativity of the use of CerMark materials, difficulty of use and artistic talent will be considered but not be the sole criteria to be a top 10 finalist picked. The 10 finalist entries will be printed 8”x 10” photo paper and displayed with a number (1-10) representing the artwork at the Ferro Corporation’s CerMark booth at the ARA trade show. Three (3) winner’s will be selected by popular vote at the 2012 ARA show. Visitors to the CerMark booth may fill out a ballot with their name and the number corresponding to their favorite entry. Votes will be placed in a box and winners will be decided by the most number of votes from each numbered photo of the marked items.

The winners will be announced at 12:00 pm PST on March 9th 2012 at the CerMark booth. The winners of the contest will be contacted shortly after the show and awarded their prize.
