The 2015 Sweet Pea Festival is excited to announce this year’s t-shirt and poster contest winners. We would like to thank everyone that participated in the contest and encourage participation next year.

This year’s adult T-shirt contest winner is Brittany Wade a Bozeman high school Junior. Wade recently began experimenting with graphic design and now is seriously considering Graphic Design as a college degree and possibly a career.
Elsa Austin, a second grader at Morning Star Elementary won this year’s Children’s T-shirt contest.  A photograph she saw of sweet pea flowers weaving through a fence inspired Elsa’s winning entry. She also enjoys leather working, painting and drawing. Elsa is looking forward to being involved with this year’s Children’s Sweet Pea Run and Parade.



The 2015 Sweet Pea poster contest winner is Anica Lees. Graduating from MSU in 2008, Anica always carried an enigmatic artistic energy. She perused a degree in Art Education and Metalsmithing and has done work including jewelry retail at Alara, art gallery assistance at Planet Bronze, and cake decorator at Elle’s Belles Bakery. Most recently, Anica has attained a decade-long dream of owning a private art studio, under the name Montana Meddle Studio.
