The Stylus Cover Art Award is judged by the Art Editor, Editor-in-Chief, Managing Editor, and Layout Editor. The cover contest gives an artist the opportunity to have their artwork featured as the cover design for the journal. The choice for winner of the Stylus Cover Art Award is guided by the theme, tone, and mood of the issue's art and writing for that year.
The Cabrini Art Award is an art contest presented by Stylus for the first time in 2011. The Cabrini Art Award winners are selected from a pool of submissions that the editors collectively vote on as finalists for the award. The Art Editor then determines the three winners based on a point system meant to objectively score each piece of artistic merit.
All art submitted to Stylus for publication is considered for both the Stylus Cover Art Award and the Cabrini Art Award. No additional action is required on behalf of the art submitters to be entered into the contests.
