Calling young artists! The Laudato Si Centre Needs You

Tuesday 12th January 2021

We are calling on young artists from schools around the diocese to get creative to draw, illustrate or paint the Laudato Si Centre’s new logo.

The Diocese of Salford is home to the Laudato Si Centre, which, when open, will welcome visitors to learn about protecting our planet, and will encourage us all to share actions and ideas ’to protect our common home’ following on from the letter that Pope Francis wrote to every person on the planet – ‘Laudato Si’.

Who

You must attend a Catholic school in our diocese to enter. We will have three age groups. There will be three prizes: two runner ups and one overall prize. Each prize winner will receive a bookshop voucher for £15 and the overall winner’s logo will be digitally transformed and turned into the Laudato Si Centre logo.

• Key Stage 1

• Key Stage 2

• Key Stage 3

What

We would like you to draw a logo based on what the Laudato Si Centre means to you.

How

We would like you to paint/draw/colour what you think our new logo should look like. Please note that this should not be produced digitally.

What next

The winning design will be transformed into a digital design which will be front and centre at our Laudato Si Centre.

Please send all entries to: lisa.heywood@dioceseofsalford.org.uk by the 12pm on Friday 12th February 2021.

Entries after this date and time will not be accepted. Please ensure your entries include the entrant’s name, age and a school contact. A template to help you do this is attached.

A panel will judge the entries and announce the winners and runners up on 1st March and the winning entry will then be transformed into the digital logo.
