Spacing magazine presents the CREATIVE MAPPING CONTEST<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Do you love maps? Are you an illustrator, graphic designer, or visual storyteller? Spacing wants you to submit your original creative maps inspired by a Canadian city.<\/p>\n

WHAT MAKES A MAP CREATIVE?<\/strong>
\nThe art of map-making has taken tremendous strides in the digital age. In the last decade, there has been an explosion of maps that are not necessarily meant to be used for directions, but instead are considered works of art and inspired imagination. We want you to create an illustrative map that reflects a Canadian city (or a neighbourhood, community) or is inspired by the urban elements that make up a city (examples: waterfront, transit, cycling, walking, graffiti, parks, architecture, laneways\/alleys, streets, traffic, taxis, weather, sewers, infrastructure, etc….)<\/p>\n

DEADLINE<\/strong>: Monday, April 30th, 2012<\/p>\n

KEEP UP TO DATE: <\/strong>Visit the Creative Mapping Contest web page<\/a> for updates and feel free to “RSVP” to our event listing on Facebook<\/a> in order to receive reminders about the deadline and other announcements. <\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

PRIZES<\/strong>: Yes! We are still in the process of collecting prizes from sponsors but we\u00a0guarantee the winners will get some really cool stuff.<\/p>\n

COST<\/strong>: Free!<\/p>\n

WINNERS<\/strong>: Spacing editors and a panel of judges will pick a handful of winning entries that will be published in the September 2012 issue of Spacing (our next national issue). Spacing will contact the winners; by entering the contest you are given permission to Spacing to publish your map(s) for a one-time usage.<\/p>\n
