Congratulations to sophomore Shea McAleer, whose design, “Imagination,” was selected as the winner for this year’s Figge Factory T-shirt Design contest! His design will be the featured Figge Factory t-shirt sold in the museum store later this year.
Additionally, he received a free one-year household membership to the Figge, a $100 prize, and a free printmaking party for his friends/family (where they’ll learn how to print shirts they get to keep and enjoy pizza and snacks).
Shea's design was chosen over many designs from schools all over the Quad City Area! Shea is only the second Saber artist to achieve this awesome honor. Congratulations, Shea!
