Love Your Body: 2013 Poster Contest [December 3, 2012]

Category:  Multiple Disciplines
 Deadline:  December 3, 2012


The National Organization for Women Foundation hosts an annual poster contest to celebrate the Love Your Body Campaign. The winning posters are featured on the website and used to promote Love Your Body events.


Guidelines

Before submitting posters to the contest, please look at past winners and familiarize yourself with the campaign. Winning posters will be chosen based on how well they counteract the media's use of narrow, unrealistic, negative images of women and/or challenge advertisers that profit from women's dissatisfaction with their bodies.
Posters should be graphically attractive and use a dynamic message. We especially look for images that demonstrate beauty is not limited by body size, body type, ethnicity, age or physical appearance. The winning posters will be displayed in schools and other public settings, so please consider this when designing your poster.
IMPORTANT: Each entry must include the artist's full name, address, phone number, valid e-mail address and category number on the back of each poster. See the prizes section below to determine what category you are in.
Artwork: Poster should be no larger than 9" x 12". The poster must include the words 2013 Love Your Body Campaign and the NOW Foundation web site address, www.nowfoundation.org.
DO NOT include a disk with your poster entry -- send only hard copy, please. If you are a category winner, you may be asked for an electornic file of your poster at that time.
Artists may submit multiple posters in the same category, but may not submit posters in different categories. Category is determined by the age of the designer/artist. If submitting multiple entries, please send them all in one envelope or package.
Entries are accepted from all countries.
Only original artwork will be considered.
Copyrighted Images/Subjects: Original signed release forms are required for copyrighted images or materials. Release forms are also needed for "subjects," whether public or private citizens. Release forms are not provided by NOW Foundation.
Some dos and don'ts:
  1. Don't submit collages or posters that mimic ad campaigns (e.g. MasterCard "priceless" commercial) or use images of celebrities, models or others who have not granted you permision to use their image.
  2. Don't send an electronic entry.
  3. Don't include three-dimensional elements that cannot be reproduced on paper.
  4. Don't mount, frame or laminate your entry.
  5. Don't send copy larger than 9" x 12".
  6. Do include requested information on the back of the poster.
  7. Do put the year (2013) on your entry, not the full date (e.g. October 19, 2013).
