Santa Monicans are invited through April 28 to participate in an online vote to choose the winner of the Twilight Dance Series Poster Contest.

The works of the 21 finalists are posted at www.twilightdance.org, where viewers can see thumbnails, high-resolution images of each option, and vote for their favorite.

Voting is easy and requires just an e-mail address, city officials said. Visitors to the site will only be able to vote one time, for one poster.

More than 100 people responded to the call for entries for the 2006 Twilight Dance Series poster. Artists at all levels, from high school students to professional studio designers, submitted entries.

“I was truly honored to be chosen,” said Jeff Verges, last year’s winner. “It was not only cool to see my work bigger than life up there on stage, but the exposure I received was priceless in promoting myself as a graphic artist in the community.”

After voting closes on April 28, the Santa Monica Pier Restoration Corp. will announce the winner at a reception at the Santa Monica Place Mall during the first week of May, where all of the entries will be displayed for several weeks.

The selected design becomes the primary communications piece for the ten-week concert series, used in display advertising, posters, flyers, banners and more.

Voters who are unable to participate online may call (310) 458-8900 and leave contact information and their choice of poster, or mail their selection to Poster Contest Voting, Santa Monica Pier Restoration Corporation, 200 Santa Monica Pier, Suite A, Santa Monica, CA 90401.
