Fan favorite voting for high school poster contest

10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

This spring, all WELS and ELS high school artists were invited to express their creativity and learn about WELS mission work by creating an 11×17” masterpiece capturing the heart of either WELS Home or World Missions. Two overall winners (one from Home Missions and one from World Missions), will be selected at the end of April.

Artwork from the two overall winners AND all other poster submissions will be on display in the auditorium. Taste of Missions attendees can vote for a third “fan favorite” winner at the event. The winner will be announced from the main stage during closing announcements at 3:45 p.m.
