Greetings, fellow beekeepers and artists. Next year is the 100th year of the OSBA. We are planning a big Centennial Celebration and we are excited to announce a logo design contest for hats, t-shirts, and posters for the occasion. We love our current logo, however a centennial is such a rare event so we would like to come up with something really special for the occasion. These hats and tees will be available to membership and possibly as thank you gifts for our crowdfunding campaign so your artwork could have an opportunity for a national stage.
Please submit your art donation to the OSBA as a photo, PDF, or original art to Karen at osba.secretary@gmail.com by January 13. The winning designer will receive a $300 award and have the opportunity to showcase their work while helping the OSBA continue to raise funds to support pollinator research at the bee lab. This is a great opportunity, and a win for the bees, beekeepers, research, and design.
Please note that this contest is open to any and all, so please let your artist designer friends know. We hope the winning design represents the OSBA, the great work we support at OSU, Oregon, beekeepers, and our 100 years strong centennial celebration. A great design should be appealing to people all over the county and Oregonians alike.
Time flies so please submit your ideas as soon as possible. Looking forward to seeing all of your great submissions.
John Jacob
