Shop Card Design Contest (Deadline for submissions is January 1st, 2015)

Submitted on Wed, 11/05/2014 - 4:43pm

The IWW is calling on all artists and graphic designers to come up with new designs for our Union Shop Cards that are issued to workers who decide to organize and affiliate with the IWW (IWW shops, Sole-Proprietors, and Co-ops).

When the IWW recognizes shops they may use the union label on their products and they are issued an IWW Union Shop Card to publicly display. Since the union is beginning to run low on previous, older Shop Cards, the General Executive Board and the General Secretary Treasurer decided it would be in good form to update the Shop Cards and get fresh designs.

We are calling on all artists and graphic designers to submit designs for new Shop Cards that will be given to IWW Union Shops to display at their workplace. The winner will be awarded $25 in credit at the IWW Literature Department. The contest will run from November 8th until January 1st, 2015 and entries should be mailed to GHQ at [email protected] with the subject line “Shop Card Competition”. Entries will be judged by a volunteer, ah-hoc committee of current IWW Union Shops. The current shop card is above.

Solidarity,
2014 GEB & IWW GHQ
