CMTC Logo Contest

Are you artistic? Have a great idea for a Manchester logo? We need you!

Members and non-members alike are invited to submit designs or artwork for a logo featuring the breed we all know and love. The designer of the winning entry will not only win bragging rights, they’ll also receive a copy of the 2010 CMTC calendar featuring the new logo and the last copy of the CMTC-commissioned print “Fetch” (shown at right). This 11x14” un-matted print was part of a limited run in 2003 and is hand-signed and numbered by artist Beth Rutherford.

To be eligible, logo designs:

• Must include both varieties of Manchester;
  Should feature a TMT (with naturally upright ears) and an SMT with cropped ears OR a TMT, an SMT with cropped ears and an SMT with button ears;
  
• Can show the dogs’ full bodies OR heads alone;
  
• May be any number of styles, from detailed designs to stylized line art. Hand-drawn artwork is welcome, but remember that the logo must be simple enough to be clear
  when big or small and to economically reproduce in a variety of mediums such as print, embroidery and silkscreen;
  
• Are limited to four (or fewer) colours and should be easily rendered in black and white. If you are working in a medium other than graphic art, consider preparing your design in a black and white version first, scanning it, and then adding colour and/or indicating that colour can be added if requested.
  
• Can include type (in which case it should clearly read Canadian Manchester Terrier Club), though this is not required. You may also consider incorporating a design element indicating this is a Canadian club.
  
• Must be received no later than October 15, 2009.
