The future Columbia Heights Community Marketplace is developing fast! Farmers are lining up with local, healthful food, arts and entertainment schedules are getting laid out for the season, and residents are continuing to step up and offer ideas to make the market a diverse event. (For previous posts about the market, see here and here). As the June 5th grand opening approaches, we now are turning our attention to advertising and making sure that all of DC knows about this exciting addition to the NW community.
That’s where our local artists come in! We need a logo for the market that will be printed on sandwich boards, lamp post signs, canvas bags, t-shirts, and market stall banners. If you’re an artist, know an artist, or just want to give it a shot, please submit a logo design! The logo should have the text “Columbia Heights Community Marketplace,” but the rest is up to you. Keep in mind that the market will be a diverse community event that will incorporate not only fresh, local food, but also music, dance, youth outreach programs, and community services.
Please send your logo design to CHCommunityMarketplace@gmail.com as soon as possible. Submissions will be accepted through Tuesday, March 16th. HOWEVER, we are on a tight time schedule, so please send them in as soon as you can! We look forward to seeing all your ideas.
