LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Jan. 2 2013 - (NYSE:GE) - Help GE search for Artie, the Dalmatian mascot of the GE Artistry™ Series, and you'll earn a chance to win Artistry appliances.

Time is running out the sweepstakes that ends Jan. 7.

The GE Artistry Series was designed to focus on the needs of today's generation of Millennials and their desire to uniquely express themselves. Created by Tomas DeLuna, a 27-year-old GE industrial designer with his own generation in mind, the Artistry Series provides a distinctive and cool appearance at an affordable price. DeLuna focused on appliance touchpoints that mattered to him, in areas where consumers interact most with the product. The GE logo, visible as a badge on the appliances, also reflects this philosophy.
