The Engage Art Contest is the creation of longtime art appreciators and philanthropists, Bill and Linda Bantz. Bill felt a strong calling from God to re-introduce artists to a wonderful source of inspiration – the Holy Scriptures. For centuries, artists such as Bach, Mozart, Chagall, Dali and Matisse were inspired to create magnificent works based on Scripture. Bill and Linda feel that now is the time for this generation to contribute a contemporary take to the depiction of the grand story shared in the Bible. The themes are evergreen and provide fodder for a broad array of artistic response. And rest assured, when using Scripture as inspiration for artwork, artists are in good company!
Thus, the Engage Art Contest was born. A juried competition for original Visual Art, Music Video, Film and Performing Arts, the Engage Art Contest calls to artists of all skill levels to share their talents and insights based on the contest topic: the Spiritual Battle described in Ephesians 6:10-20 and related verses.
