Market Square Day 2015 Logo Contest Underway

The Seacoast’s premier Downtown-festival organization, Pro Portsmouth will produce the 38th Annual Market Square Day Festival and Road Race on Saturday, June 13, according to a press statement.

Each year the group looks to the artists of the Seacoast to create a logo for Market Square Day. Once again, the ‘Call to Logo Artists’ is your opportunity to create a logo that lives on for years. Since 1978, Market Square Day has taken place in the heart of the City. Pro Portsmouth looks to the artists of the community to put their signature on the 2015 Logo design and message.

Themes that always (and still do) resonate for Pro Portsmouth are the four ‘keys’ of its Mission – Arts, Culture, History & Community. Please incorporate the text ‘Market Square Day 2015’ as well as “A Pro Portsmouth Event” – into your design.
