Enter our Propaganda Design Competition

28/06/13

We’re celebrating the latest major exhibition at our St Pancras site in London, ‘Propaganda: Power and Persuasion’. It’s the first exhibition to explore international state propaganda from the 20th and 21st centuries from around the world.

Propaganda is all around us. It is used to fight wars and disease, build unity and create division. Whether monumental or commonplace, sincere or insidious, propaganda is often surprising, sometimes horrific and occasionally humorous.

Through our creative industries programme, the Library has partnered with Artsthread to run a competition for creatives with a cash prize of £1,500, promotion via the British Library news and blog websites, marketing channels and on the Artsthread website, e-newsletter and magazine.

Entry is free and the deadline is 31 July 2013. It’s open to creative students, graduates or anyone who has been working for less than three years in the design industry.
