Umbrella Movement Logo Competition Call for Entries

The Umbrella Movement Logo Competition is now open for entries. The aim of the competition is to find a logo that represents the spirit and values of the Umbrella Movement, which was a pro-democracy movement that took place in Hong Kong in 2014.

The Umbrella Movement was a series of protests and civil disobedience actions that were sparked by the decision of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress to limit the number of candidates for the Hong Kong Chief Executive election. Protesters used umbrellas as a symbol of their peaceful intentions and to protect themselves from pepper spray and tear gas used by police.

The competition is open to anyone who wishes to participate. There is no entry fee, and participants are allowed to submit up to three designs. The winning logo will be used as the official logo of the Umbrella Movement and will be used on merchandise, social media, and other promotional materials.

The logo should be simple, memorable, and easily recognizable. It should incorporate the symbol of an umbrella in some way, and should also represent the values of democracy, freedom, and peaceful protest.

Entries will be judged by a panel of experts in the fields of design and activism. The winning design will be announced on the 5th anniversary of the Umbrella Movement on September 28, 2019.

To enter the competition, participants should submit their designs to the official Umbrella Movement Logo Competition website. The deadline for entries is August 31, 2019.

The Umbrella Movement was a defining moment in Hong Kong’s history, and the logo competition is an opportunity for designers and activists to contribute to the legacy of the movement. We encourage everyone to participate and to help us find a logo that represents the spirit of the Umbrella Movement.

The Umbrella Movement, also known as the Hong Kong Democracy Movement, is a series of protests and civil disobedience actions that began in September 2014 in Hong Kong. The movement was sparked by the decision of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress in Beijing to restrict the procedure for the selection of the Chief Executive of Hong Kong. The movement became known as the Umbrella Movement because of the widespread use of umbrellas by protesters to shield themselves from pepper spray and tear gas.

To further promote the Umbrella Movement and its message, a logo competition has been launched. The competition is open to designers from all over the world, with the aim of creating a logo that represents the spirit and values of the Umbrella Movement.

The logo should be simple yet powerful, with a focus on the themes of democracy, freedom, and hope. It should be easily recognizable and able to be used on various platforms such as social media, merchandise, and banners.

Entries will be judged by a panel of experts, including prominent members of the Umbrella Movement. The winning logo will be used as the official logo of the Umbrella Movement and will be widely promoted and displayed.

Designers interested in participating in the competition can submit their entries by email to [email protected]. The deadline for submissions is September 30, 2021.

The Umbrella Movement has become a symbol of peaceful resistance and determination in the face of oppression. The logo competition is an opportunity for designers to contribute to this movement and help spread its message of democracy and freedom.
