The School of Law is conducting a design competition. These designs will be used on various goods such as T-shirts, tote bags, pens etc for the school’s participation in educating the public on the legal impacts of the upcoming Referendum. Students are asked to submit a design along with the entry form below. The competition will run from the 20th of February 2023 until the 31st of March 2023. The winners will receive a $500 cash prize and a copy of the book Finding the Heart of the Nation: The Journey of the Uluru Statement from the Heart Continues by Thomas Mayor.
The design can be any original work of art (or can be made using AI!) Any size, or type is allowed as long as it is capable of being reproduced on a normal sized tote or t-shirt without affecting the design.
Things to remember:
- If you are not Indigenous try to be careful of using designs that appropriate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders' Culture
- You can use text and images but be sure the work is your own
- Joint submissions are okay but prize to be shared between authors
- Please read the terms and conditions before submitting
Submissions to the competition have now closed. Winners will be announced shortly.
