This time of year is often accompanied by the primal urge to do something for others.  I wish we could find that recipe to cook up on a more regular basis, don’t you?  Check out the cookies from Red Riding Hood Edibles. Most of the women in my family have been affected by cancer in one form or the other.  This next Call gives me an opportunity to cook up a little something to give back.

Check out this Call for Entries for the Poster Contest to support the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure.  There is no entry fee, and if your design is chosen, your poster will be plastered all over NYC.  Plus, you’ll know that you helped just a little in the Race for the Cure for breast cancer.  Take a look…

CALL for Entries:  Run Breast Cancer out of Town

Learn more about Susan G Komen for the Cure!One in every eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime, which means that whether it’s a mother, daughter, sister, wife, colleague, or neighbor, chances are you will know someone who’s had to battle the disease.

Susan G. Komen for the Cure is the global leader in the fight against breast cancer, working to save lives, empower people, ensure quality care for all and energize science to find the cures. The Greater New York City Affiliate is #1 in fundraising and grants given out of the entire Komen network of 125 Affiliates worldwide. 

Learn more about the Susan G Komen poster contest!Now you have a chance to make a difference. Using your skills, you can join the fight to Run Breast Cancer Out of Town by submitting a concept for the 2011 Susan G. Komen New York City Race for the Cure campaign.

It’s simple.

 

Just follow the guidelines & your artwork could be seen all over New York City as part of next year’s Race campaign.

MEDIA:  Create an amazingly eye-catching piece of artwork incorporating the words, “RUN BREAST CANCER OUT OF TOWN.”

Include New York City in your artwork. The city itself is one of the things that sets this Race apart, and they like to show it off. It doesn’t have to be the skyline, but be sure the art lets everyone know that they’re in the Big Apple.

Create an original piece of artwork that can be adapted to various proportions and sizes. Sometimes we may need something as small as a postcard and other times we may be on the Jumbotron at Macy’s.  Think flexibility when designing your artwork.

COLOR:  Pink is THE color.  It is the universal color for breast cancer and should be a part of the color scheme.  BUT, feel free to mix in other colors. The pinks used in their logo are Pantone 227 and 232.

Check out this Susan G. Komen Race poster from 2009!FORMAT: Illustrator is the preferred application because vector art is the easiest to manipulate, but if you need to create your art using a different program or the old-fashioned way, by hand, then make sure that you create something that can be adapted to both vertical and horizontal formats (mainly vertical) and it must be at least 600 dpi at 8.5” x 11”.

Remember that they are going to need to add logos and some copy.  Please include your name, address, telephone number and email address with your emailed entry.

DEADLINE:  December 31, 2010. Please email your submission to vcalhoun@komennyc.org. Low resolution is best for emailing. If your artwork is selected they will require the high resolution version at that point.

RIGHTS:  Contest participants are required to assign their interests in the artwork to the Greater New York City Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure as a condition to participation. Download the Assignment of Rights Form Please note that you must include an executed assignment form with your submission. Download the assignment form. A PDF or fax (212-560-9598) is fine.

PRIZES:  $500 cash award, a copy of the final printed poster, your profile on the Komen Greater NYC website,  and two free registrations in the Komen New York City Race for the Cure®

NICELY BROWNED!

In 3rd grade, I took “European Art Lessons” for one hour per week.  They weren’t like sauer kraut, foie gras or kidney pie that immediately hint at their origin.  I never figured out exactly what made the lessons European, but I did learn if you overwork soft pastels, you will end up with a brown mess.  They were worth their cost in wiener schnitzel.  I hope this next Call will inspire you to create some un-brown work.
