Our campaign to save Cahuenga Peak has attracted international media attention, and now's your chance to be a part of it! We're hosting a t-shirt design contest, with the winning designs to be featured on our site, Facebook page (currently with over 15,000 fans), and sold in the Save Cahuenga Peak Webstore!

Whether you're a professional or an amateur all designs are welcome. Just submit your designs to our Flickr pool, and users can vote on their favorite designs by clicking the 'Favorite' star above the photo. The design with the most Favorites at the end of the contest wins!

More details are on the flyer shown above, or download a high-res PDF of the flyer at the link below. You can even print it out and post it around your school to help spread the word.

Full text of the brief below...

The Brief
The land around the Hollywood Sign is for sale. The Trust for Public Land (TPL) has until April 2010 to save it from real estate development that would forever deface this world-renowned landmark--an icon of both Los Angeles and the entertainment industry.

Our challenge to you: let your creativity inspire others to help save one of America's most recognized landmarks through an original design that captures the spirit of the campaign. Need more inspiration? Check out our website, www.savehollywoodland.org. We've also posted some helpful photos on Flickr, where you'll upload your artwork (but more about that later).

The winning design will become the official t-shirt of the national campaign to Save Cahuenga Peak and will be available for sale in our webstore. Imagine your design worn by our celebrity supporters and fans, visible to all on the world stage!

The deadline to submit your design is February 28, 2010. Public voting begins February 15 at the Save Cahuenga Peak Flickr Group http://www.flickr.com/groups/cahuenga_tshirt/. A judging panel will evaluate the three (3) most Flickr-favorited designs, and will choose one (1) winner.

The contest winner will be announced March 5 at the campaign website: www.savehollywoodland.org.
