Last year's winner, Vincent Marcellino aka Vincentius, as Imperator Marcellinus. |
The days are growing shorter and there’s a chill in the air,
which means it’s time for Bolchazy-Carducci’s annual Halloween costume
contest, Dolus aut Dulce! We love
seeing our participants’ creativity in making classics-related costumes and
can’t wait to see what’s in store this year. Whether you are someone who
happens to have spent time wrapped in the quintessential sheet-toga (and who
among us hasn’t) or you take pleasure in crafting elaborate themed costumes,
please send us your photos!
To enter our classics costume contest, all you need to do is
follow @BCPublishers on Twitter and then tweet us your costume photo using the
hashtag #BCPub. There are two entry categories, individual and group costume. The
winner in each category will receive a $50 book credit. Once the contest has
ended, the Bolchazy editorial board will judge all submissions and award one
prize per category based on the following criteria: creativity, quality, and
connection to classics. One entry per Twitter account, please. For group
contest submissions, the prize will go to the owner of the Twitter account who
submitted the photo unless otherwise specified.
No need to wait until October 31st to send a picture. And,
you don’t have to strictly limit yourself to Halloween pictures—if you have a photo
of yourself dressed in classical costume for a non-Halloween-related reason,
feel free to submit it! We will start accepting photos this week and will
continue to accept pictures until 11:59 PM CT on Wednesday, November 7th.
