Portfolio Center Blog Portfolio Center Blog: Artists, Graphic Designers, Photographers, Lyricists, Copywriters, and Poets . . . A Great Way to Add to Your Portfolio!!
A call has just been put out for the 2nd Annual Columbia College Chicago Holiday Card Competition! I know, it's hard to imagine walking in a winter wonderland with the sleigh bells ringing just about now, but can you visualize a $500 stipend and some great new work to add to your portfolio?! The winners' cards will also be mailed to all the big wigs at the college and around the country (trustees, alumni, gallery owners, collectors . . . ah, the list just goes on and on). You never know whose eye you might catch! Hey, seriously, it happens here in our center all the time.
This year, the college is encouraging collaboration to get some really fabulous holiday card entries - graphic students hooking up with copywriters, photographers working with poets, etc. The submission dates are between September 8th (which means NOW) and October 6th (RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER!). Winners will be announced mid-October.
So check out the official website for all the details. And at the very least, even if you don't win, you'll add a great piece to your portfolio!
