THE INDEPENDENT

Distribution Box Contest!

The Independent is looking to redesign the distribution boxes on campus, and we want YOU to help! We are looking for artists, graphic designers, painters, illustrators, anyone with a flair for visual arts to submit ideas for how to redecorate the Indy’s yellow boxes. All you have to do is email Allison Anderson (awanderson@fortlewis.edu) for a template and return a completed submission by Wednesday, December 14th. We here at the Indy will select our 11 favorite redesigns - one for every box on campus. If yours is chosen, you get a box to put it on AND we’ll pay for the supplies (within reason) to decorate it!

 

Please note that any submissions featuring graphic or explicit content will be automatically disqualified. By submitting content to The Independent you turn over the right for us to utilize and reproduce this content as we see fit.
