Contest or sale???
Hi Julie,
I'm no accountant but this doesn't sound so different from the days when I was a graphic designer and more than one graphic designer or advertising company would 'pitch' their idea to the client. The company, or client, would then choose the one they liked best and hire and pay for that artwork. Seems like this is just about the same thing with the church being the client.
I think what is confusing is the fact that they're calling this an 'art contest'. It seems like a true contest would be when your entry is chosen as the winner, you are awarded the cash prize but don't you get to keep your painting? If they're keeping the painting it would seem to be a sale.
Like I said, I'm no accountant but these are just my thoughts and you might think about them. I would be curious how adding the word 'contest' changes things, if in fact is does.
