Brooklyn Industries is excited to announce the kickoff of the 2011 BKI T-Shirt Design Contest! This year, we are calling for designs from anyone and everyone (18 years of age or older) to see the best of the best t-shirt designs. At least one winning design will be printed and sold in Brooklyn Industries stores and online at www.brooklynindustries.com by fall 2011.
The Grand Prize winner will also receive a $500 BKI Gift Card, and at least two Honorable Mention winners will be selected, winning $150 gift cards each. In early fall, there will be a Brooklyn Industries event to unveil the grand prize winner’s t-shirt, and to honor the contest’s best designs, as voted by a BKI panel of judges. Design entries will be accepted through May 30, 2011. Official rules and entry instructions can be found here.
BKI most recently showcased t-shirt design talent in Chicago and Boston. Last year’s Grand Prize winner in Boston, Bartow, created customer favorite “Handlebar Moustache” to claim his honor.
He has since designed a “Bartow Artist Series” of Brooklyn Industries t-shirts, the first of which “Pizza Wheel” hit stores last month.
Other contest winners include Carey Givens’ “Ye Olde Fixie” design, and Chicago contest winner’s best-selling “Lobsta” design.
