Surely, most of you know by now our special Thank-you cards. Small artworks created by local artists/designers (who are always paid) to thank speakers and experts invited for our projects.
The Municipality of Maastricht often has to thank speakers, guests and representatives from different countries or institutions as well.
For the next year, rather than a “common present”, they would like to embrace the Thank-you cards idea (YUPPY!). Therefore, they aim to give to their guest something special and unique that can remember their visit to Maastricht.
For this reason, a special public competition for the design or creation of different Thank-you cards is open to every artists or designer living in Maastricht or its surrounding.
Please read carefully the instructions below.
There are 3 different Thank-you card categories and 3 winners with a monetary price and 1-year contract for each of them.
Submit your Maastricht Thank-you card proposal by November the 30th at hello@theartistandtheothers.nl Subject line: Maastricht Thank-you-card and take the chance to win a monetary reward, next to the fact, that your ‘artwork/design’ will be the original Maastricht Thank-you card for the next year.
WINNERS:
The winner of each session will receive a price of 250 Euros and a contract for a year. The winners will need to sign an agreement with the Municipality of Maastricht, where all your creative right will be respected, and highlight in case of Categories 1 & 2, the amount of limited edition decided in agreement with the Municipality of Maastricht.
Good luck and we look forward receiving your proposal!
