"Design History" Logo Contest

OPPORTUNITY TO “DESIGN HISTORY”
MCHS announces a logo design contest to commemorate their 75 year history

MILWAUKEE, WI, December 30, 2009 –The Milwaukee County Historical Society announces its “Design History” logo contest.  MCHS will celebrate 75 years in 2010 and needs a new look to update their own history.  The winning logo will be used in all material and communications moving forward. 

The contest is open to anyone. Submissions will be accepted until Friday, February 5, 2010. See Offifical Rules for more information. 

“We know that there is plenty of vision and talent right here in our community,” says Robert Teske, executive director of MCHS.  “We think this is a special opportunity for our creative community to put their own mark on history and hope that submissions reflect that.”  A local panel representing MCHS and the design and art community will select three finalists.  The public will then be invited to vote for their favorite design online in the month of March.  The winning design will be unveiled at the MCHS Awards Dinner in April.
