Graphic designers and artists are now able to enter the annual Artist Series Wine Label Design contest for The Capital Grille, and can submit their creations until October 7, according to the Orlando Sentinel.

The contest judges artist's creations and the winners will be put on a blended cabernet sauvignon from Napa Valley, which is sold at all 45 of The Capital Grille locations. The restaurant will then donate $1 for every bottle sold to Share Our Strength, which is an organization to stop childhood hunger in the U.S., according to the news source.

In the first two years of this competition, the restaurant donated a total of $420,000 to this cause, the media outlet reports.

Individuals who are interested in graphic design may want to know what their likelihood will be of landing a job once they graduate from their design programs. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment for professionals in this field is expected to increase by 13 percent between 2008 and 2018.
