You’re invited to submit a design for the Blue Line Project’s Mural Design Contest!
Details: The Blue Line Project is an awareness initiative that aims to educate our community about the reality of sea level rise and climate change by visualizing the potential impacts of storm surges through art installations. They plan to bring this conversation to the College of Charleston campus by designing a mural on the 114 Wentworth building, facing the downtown student garden.
Design Guidelines: For your submissions, you’re encouraged to sketch out your ideas however you are comfortable, whether that is a pencil sketch of ideas or if you prefer to make it online. You can use colors to convey different levels of details if you want to, or you can use shading instead. The requirements for the submission are:
- 3 visible blue lines at varying heights (about 10ft, 12ft, and 16ft tall)
- Must be at least the height of the maximum line, but as wide as you would like
- May not include profanity, political, derogatory language, or religious references
Other than that, the entire design is up to you!
Great Opportunity For: Any student with a passion for sustainability, regardless of your major, year of study, or prior artistic background!
Submissions: Click this link to submit your design! Submissions close on Friday, November 22nd.
For more information, check out the details at the submission link, contact Honors student Abby Malloy at malloyam@g.cofc.edu, or reach out to the Blue Line Project on Instagram.
