The Art of Patron Bottle Art Contest 2016

"I would like to congratulate Scott Innes from Philadelphia, PA, The Art of Patron Bottle Art Contest 2016 Grand Prize winner, fellow finalists and all the contestants of the Art of Patron Bottle Art Contest 2016!" - Windell, Gottles LLC

“The Art of Patron” Contest Celebrates Original Artwork Inspired by Patron Tequila Bottles - From the moment Patron tequila was first introduced, its glass bottle quickly became a symbol of the brand and its premium craftsmanship. It also has inspired artists to transform Patron bottles into handmade visual and functional arts. Recognizing the growing popularity of repurposing Patron bottles, “The Art of Patron” contest encourages fans and artisans across the country to share their artistic vision using Patron’s signature tequila bottles as inspiration for a chance to win $10,000 and national exposure.

People often tell us that empty Patrón bottles, and even our distinctive round corks, are just too beautiful to throw away. As a matter of fact, thousands of images of Patron bottles transformed into interesting and unique art pieces have been posted on social channels and online. At Patrón, we perfected the craft of making high-quality tequila, and designing a recognized bottle – the ‘Art of Patrón’ Bottle Art Contest is an opportunity for people to now perfect a second life for those iconic bottles.
