WHAT: Design a logo that we will use to create “I Voted” 2 inch stickers and digital graphics that can be used for sharing for the November 5, 2024 General Election. I Voted must appear somewhere in the design, but the rest is up to you.
WHEN: Artwork will be collected between the period of April 1, 2024- June 1, 2024.
