All of us at Icicle Arts are excited for our upcoming festival featuring the Icicle Prize in Songwriting (sponsored by the Icicle Fund), which takes place September 10-12. Students and working musicians in Chelan, Douglas, Grant, and Okanagan Counties are invited to submit one original song of any style by the August 16 deadline. The student category includes students up to age 18 and offers the chance to win up to $300, plus a performance slot at the main stage event. The working musician category includes prizes starting at $100 and a grand prize of $1,000! Ten finalists from this category will also perform at the main stage event in Leavenworth, Washington on Sunday, September 12 at 2:00PM at Sleeping Lady Mountain Resort's Chapel Theater. Audience members can cast their vote for their favorite performer in the "Audience Choice" award! Tickets are $12 in advance ($14 at the door) and can be reserved now online or by calling (509) 548-2278. Songwriters interested in entering may download an entry form.
Additionally, a free “open mic” event, sponsored by Leavenworth Community Coffeehouse, will take place on Saturday, September 11, in downtown Leavenworth. There will also be film screenings by 2009 Icicle Prize winners, and workshops in a variety of styles.
