The City of Ithaca Parks Commission invites community members to submit designs for a new logo for the City's parks system. The selected logo will reflect the natural beauty of the parks, the recreational opportunities that they offer, and/or the sense of community that they help create. It will be used on signage, park information, and the City's website so it must be easy to replicate on multiple signs, printed materials, and electronic communications.

People of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities are encouraged to apply. No prior art experience is required. The winner will receive an award of $200. All logo designs must be submitted by Friday, May 6, 2016.

Contact: [email protected] with any questions. Please help forward this announcement to anyone who may be interested. :)

Video tonight in Ithaca about public art! Global premier of the new, short video about fallen Zapatista teacher Galeano. The fast-paced, visually stunning video will teach about the assassinated Mayan rebel while documenting the painting of an astounding mural deep in Zapatista territory. This dramatic artwork was painted by an international team of volunteers from 12 countries earlier this year and now lives on the walls of Galeano's rebuilt school and clinic in the community of La Realidad.
