Eleven-year-old engineering wiz Gio Basile created the winning poster design for the 38th Annual California Strawberry Festival.
This is the first California Strawberry Festival poster design contest since 2020 when the festival was canceled due to the pandemic. Gio’s generative art design was one of 154 entries from around the country. He takes home the $2,000 grand prize and VIP tickets to the festival.
Gio lives in Upland with his parents and sister. “Thank you for the opportunity to enter the contest,” says Gio. “I want to share my work and hopefully inspire others to be creative.”
