EC 2020 T-shirt Design Competition
With Earth Celebration (EC) having a new look this year, we are taking a new approach in EC merchandise as well!
This year, we would like to ask for design donations from around the world, where ultimately one design will be selected as the design for this year's official EC T-shirt.
Perhaps especially this year, we have all felt connected with people around the world in some way or form. Why not express this through your unique design?
Design Theme: 【"Sado, Kodo, and the World. We are all connected!"】
We are seeking T-shirt designs under this theme.
Let's liven up Earth Celebration together!
We look forward to receiving many creative designs.
Please read through the details and instructions below before applying.
