Do you have a passion for design and creative branding development?

Can you create a simple but visually impactful logo that captures the spirit of an exciting cultural and creative programme?

The Liverpool City Region Combined Authority has launched an open competition to design the official logo for their Borough of Culture initiative and want residents and artists /designers aged 16 and over
(amateur and professional) from across the Liverpool City Region to get involved.

They are looking for a logo that will inspire and make more people aware of the fantastic cultural and creative opportunities on offer across the Liverpool City Region.

The Liverpool City Region Combined Authority is the first in the country to have powers over culture included in its devolution deal, and has created the Borough of Culture award to encourage cultural activities across the whole city region.

Borough of Culture is awarded annually on a rotational basis to one of the six local authorities that make up our city region, as part of our 1% for Culture programme.

The purpose of the award is to stimulate new cultural and creative opportunities; highlighting the unique character and distinctiveness of its people and places, developing the skills and talents of its residents in order to create an exciting year of cultural events and activity that everyone can enjoy and take part in.

They need a logo design that can be used by each Borough throughout its host year in the year it is awarded the title.

The winning submission will receive a prize of £800 and will be developed into the Borough of Culture official logo from 2019 onwards.

Closing date is noon on Monday, January 7 2019.
