Patrolling with Pride: Create the Look of Dillon

December 31st, 2024 - Official Call for Artists!

Call For Artists:  Wrap Our Ride!

Do you have a design idea for the City of Dillon Police Department’s Ford Interceptor?

The City of Dillon Police Department is looking to artists to design an artistic vinyl wrap for the Ford interceptor, which will be used as part of an innovative approach that not only will enhance the visibility and presence of our police force, but also serve as a mobile billboard showcasing Dillon’s unique attractions and welcoming visitors. 

Submissions will be accepted until January 31st, 2025 at 5:00 p.m.

The winning artist will get to:

·          Have their own design turned into a vehicle wrap for the patrol car

·         Be recognized in the Police Department’s social media initiative

·         Be invited to reveal the finished design at an open house hosted by the City of Dillon, Montana Department of Commerce Office of Tourism, and the Dillon Police Department

Dillon area residents were asked to vote on a theme to best represent the City of Dillon, and artists are asked to consider the top three themes that were picked:

·         Beaverhead County High School Beavers and University of Montana Western Bulldogs

·         Rodeo and Ranching

·         Fishing and Hunting

Artists must consider the surfaces of the vehicle which will have the vinyl wrap applied, for example there can be no graphics in front two windows and front windshield. 

A detailed outline of the vehicle can be downloaded here. (EPS file)

The submission form is available here.  Artists may submit multiple designs, but one submission form should accompany each design.

Please direct any questions to Kristina Abbey, Director of Operations, at operations@dillonmt.org
