To any artist who loves being a part of the Tongal community, especially creators with ties to the Boston area, this one's for you! Tongal will be hosting a series of events that bring together our creative community, current brands we work with, and future Tongal partners in a selection of cities across the country. These events will be a place for Tongalers and friends of Tongal to get together offline and experience first hand what it means to be a part of this community. The first event in this series will be in Boston, MA.

To help spotlight the talent in our community through these events, we are looking for a creator to produce a “Tongal in Boston!” themed artwork package that will be used on invitations and marketing materials for this event. 

This artwork package will include three designs: one for a digital invitation, one for social media promotion, and one for actual printed posters at the event. These can either be three unique designs that follow the same theme, or you can go with one versatile design that's resizable for each specific medium. The artwork itself should be fun, creative, upbeat, and eye-catching, focused on bringing the essence of Tongal to life, and incorporate the city of Boston in some way. The designs must include Tongal’s logo, and we'd recommend you think about designs could that include scenes from the city, or elements and landmarks that are positively associated with the city and its people. Use your imagination, have fun with it!

The design will need to leave space for event details on the digital invitation and social version, and that exact copy will be provided to the final creator.

For your initial design submission, we'd like to see a 1240 x 1740 sample of your proposed digital invitation, as a JPG or PNG.

• One digital invitation (1240 x 1740)
