Design the 2026 Gold Rush logo!
Valdez Gold Rush Days invites artists to create an official logo for this year’s theme!
The selected design will be featured across official Gold Rush Days 2026 materials, including flyers, pins, embroidery, and other event uses.
The artist will also be recognized in the 2026 Gold Rush Days program with an “About the Artist” feature, receive a swag bag featuring items with their design, and will be offered a complimentary, designated booth at the Open Air Market, should they wish to participate.
Volunteer
