Teen Artists for Social Justice

Teen Artists for Social Justice Poster Contest

Description:

We are inviting all Chatham youth in Grades 6 to 12 to design a poster that we can put up in the library and other local venues that choose to promote inclusion and acceptance.

What We’re Looking For:

An eye-catching poster design to promote social justice and inclusion that adheres to the contest rules below.
A positive message that lets viewers know that the place they are entering (library or business) is a safe space for those coping with the consequences of social injustice.
Original content and creativity. From abstract art to realistic sketches, digital art to photography, you are free to interpret the theme as you wish.

What You’ll Win:

Notoriety – The top three designs will be printed on the library’s large format printer and displayed in the library and around town.
The top three designs will also be printed on t-shirts for the winners.
First place winner will receive a Speedball Advanced All-in-One Fabric Screen Printing Kit

CONGRATULATIONS!
We will be contacting everyone shortly regarding the prizes.
