I am Englewood logo contest...

Now this is what I'm talking about. It looks like there is finally a call by the neighborhoods to brand themselves. In this case it's Englewood who had been represented negatively by The Chicago Neighborhoods and Slightly Insulting Chicago Posters. Now it's great to see Englewood start to take matters in their own hands:
The Invest In Englewood Advisory Council is actively seeking a locally designed logo for Englewood. The logo will be used for all marketing materials for the Invest In Englewood Campaign which is being managed by the Greater Englewood CDC.

The Invest in Englewood Campaign is a comprehensive initiative whose mission is to rebrand, rebuild, and revitalize the economy of Greater Englewood by building on existing community assets and facilitating collaboration between residents and other key stakeholders.

The contest is for students of Englewood in grades 7th- 12th who live or go to school in the Englewood neighborhood. We are working to create signage, banners, yard signs, t-shirts, etc. and hope to have a symbol/logo that represent the pride, hope, and opportunities that lie within Englewood. We are accepting submissions until November 28th.

The theme that will be use for many of these materials will be Rebrand. Rebuild. Revitalize. We hope the logo/symbol will represent these three important elements of the campaign. For more details call 866-845-1032 or email your submissions to abutler @ greaterenglewoodcdc . org!

We need everyone's help in order to REBRAND. REBUILD. REVITALIZE Englewood!
And again, we're going to make another call for more people who are artists or graphic designers to make logos or brands for their respective communities. Hopefully we will all see what the residents of Englewood can eventually come up with.

Flyer is below, if you want to spread the word!
