COLUMBUS, Ind. – The Council for Youth Development (CYD) is seeking design submissions as part of its “Shine On” campaign. Submissions are accepted until Wednesday, May 10. The campaign is in commemoration of International Youth Day on August 12.
“In the week leading up to International Youth Day, we distribute 8,000 postcards created by four local, student artists,” CYD’s website states. “Our goal is that each postcard will end up in the hands of a young person in the community with a meaningful message written on the back. Our postcards are ultimately created for young people, by young people.”
“The artwork should be vibrant, cheerful designs that encourage children, teens, and young adults to shine,” the website says.
Artists may use any medium, but submissions must be scannable and digitally uploaded. The artwork needs to be 5 x 7 inches, 300 dpi, saved as a JPG, and no larger than 1 GB. The words “Shine On” must be included.
