In celebration of the upcoming NFL Draft and the Jaguars' historic selection of the first overall pick, the team has joined together with local artists to commission one-of-a-kind painted footballs commemorating the occasion. Fans can now visit the online auction site (https://betterunite.com/moreartculture) to bid on their favorite football with proceeds benefiting the Cultural Council of Greater Jacksonville. The balls will also be on display on Thursday night at the team's draft celebration at TIAA Bank Field.
"We appreciate this unique opportunity to collaborate with the Jaguars and see it as the perfect kick off to our new 'Arts +' campaign," said Diana Donovan, executive director of the Cultural Council. "The Arts + Sports collaborative project showcases Jacksonville's creative economy, igniting a merger of artists and athletes, to bring a fresh perspective to a quality of life we all share, as well as a commitment to serving our city together as a team of innovators and placemakers."
