It’s not even winter, and one of the thrills of next summer is already knocking on the door. Celebrate Brooklyn!, the summer-long concert series that’s the reason to spend a warm evening in Prospect Park in recent years, is looking for a new t-shirt design for 2011. The series’ organizer, BRIC Arts/Media, is holding a t-shirt design contest between now and Jan. 31, 2011. Whether you’re “an aspiring artist or designer squatting in Bushwick… or just a constant doodler in your 9-5 cubicle,” submit a design, get chosen by the judges at BRIC, and you’ll win a “Friend” summer-long membership that includes four reserved seats and tent-access for every regular show, plus two comp tickets to a benefit show and more.
What exactly do you have to do? Not much at all. The idea is to create a shirt that “evokes the overall vibe and character of the Celebrate Brooklyn!.” Beyond that, stick to four colors, make sure you own all the rights to your work and email your design to celebratebrooklyn@gmail.com by 5 p.m. on Jan. 31, 2011. Ok, there are a few tech specs you should know about file format and such, but you can read all that here.
So get going on that evocative image, and you could have a summer-long view like this.
