Each year, BreyerFest hosts a Diorama Contest that attendees are invited to participate in. Participation in the contest is open to (and free for) VIP and All-Access ticket holders and the contest theme ties into the BreyerFest theme in some way. In the last few years, the entrants who have contributed to the Diorama Contest have blown our minds (and the minds of our esteemed judges) with their creativity, ingenuity, and the various ways in which they interpret each year’s theme.
With this year’s BreyerFest focused on color and art we can’t wait to see what diorama entries are submitted for 2021’s Diorama Contest – Horses Throughout Art History.
Participants in this year’s Horses Throughout Art History Diorama Contest are invited to create a diorama, using any scale Breyer model, which recreates a scene of a horse in art. The work you select as the inspiration for your diorama project MUST include at least one horse in it, but the original medium of the piece you draw inspiration from can be any type of art: a clay pot, a painting, a sculpture, a photograph, etc. Your diorama does not need to be an exact interpretation of the original artwork, but when compared side-by-side, it should be clear that your selected work was the inspiration for your diorama.
Entrants must select a work that is Public Domain/Open Access from one of the three provided source sites. You can watch our quick video explaining this here.
Participants must include a direct link to the original art piece they were inspired by for reference with their entry. This year’s contest is open only to All-Access and VIP All-Access ticket holders. All entries must fit into a 12” cube and must include at least one (1) Breyer model horse. Complete rules and information on how to enter can be found here. Please read the rules carefully.
This handy checklist should help get you started:
We cannot wait to see what participants come up with!

@Gale Lavota, I don’t know if you’ll see this, but I can help!
You know in Google Chrome, the place where you type addresses at the top? Like where, if you want to go to google.com, you’d type that? All you have to do is go to the page with the piece of art you want, click in that address field at the top just once – the text/address should turn blue (or some other colour) and that means it’s selected (you can also click, hold and drag from one end to the other to select it all). Now right click that selected address, and click copy from the menu. (you can also hold CTRL and C at the same time on your keyboard to copy text)
Now, open your email and get it ready to go to Breyer. When you want to put the link in, just right click and click paste (or hold CTRL and V at the same time). The link (assuming it’s the last thing you copied) will go into the email.
You can copy and paste most text this way, not just web addresses! Good luck!

Are diorama contest entries limited to just one inspirational artwork? Will dioramas with more than one inspiration be accepted?

Liked the video for the Diorama and Costume contests; Was so easy to understand.
How about a short video showing how to put a link into the email ( the Entry email for each contest sent in).
I know how to use the Source (1,2,3) links, I see the art work and click that tile to see what art work is listed in that category.
Then I select the art piece. What info is required in the link that will be put in my entry email? And how do I create a link from the art virtual
gallery and put it in my entry email. I’ve already asked a bunch of people I know, but no one explained it well enough for me to figure it out on my computer. Google chrome is my internet and gmail.com is for my emails. I also need to know the steps and what to click.
The internet has some sites for this (putting a link in an email that I would be sending) but it just gets very confusing.

This post says that the artwork chosen as the inspiration must have a horse in it, but the official rules page doesn’t say that. Which is correct?
