Poultry Going Platinum
In advance of the upcoming festival, and to allow parade and festival
preparation, the Poultry Days Board is proud to share the 2018 theme
artwork. While the current board will be seeking another annual
sales record the Poultry Days organization is anticipating a
significant milestone as the festival expects to sell its One Millionth
Dinner. In recognition of this milestone the 2018 theme is
“Poultry Going Platinum”.
The 2018 artwork is special because it was created by local resident
Quincy Baltes. Quincy Baltes is a 2016 alumnus of Versailles High
School. He is currently studying Animation and Storyboarding at
the Savannah College of Art and Design in Savannah, Georgia. He
is also exploring the worlds of Motion Media, Illustration, Sequential
Art, and Performing Arts. Along with Quincy Baltes’ work on the
theme artwork and festival logo, another local graduate has been
supporting the festival. Morgan Turpen is a 2015 graduate of
Versailles and studying graphic design under the University of
Cincinnati’s DAAP Program. Morgan has been designing signs and
billboards and contributing to festival publicity. The
Poultry Days Board is excited to involve local graduates in the
festival and see their creativity support the community.
The 67th annual festival will be held June 8, 9, and 10th in Versailles
Ohio. One of Ohio’s oldest festivals, this event celebrates the
area’s poultry-producing history as well as its sense of
community. The board welcomes everyone to come enjoy the
festival. Registration information for the parade and other
festival events will be posted as available at
