In conjunction with the much publicized summer games being held in China this year, we thought we’d participate in the spirit of competition and test the creative endurance of the Imagekind community. Over the next two weeks, we will be holding three separate events for you to participate in and win. Introducing the:

Imagekind Summer Games – Can your art stand up to the challenge?

All Winners will be featured on our homepage, in an upcoming email newsletter and will win other great prizes! In addition, a gold, silver and bronze medal will be awarded for each event. Gold medalists will each get a $50 gift card and Silver and Bronze winners will receive a small print of their work. Each event will have one Gold medal winner, one Silver medal winner and one Bronze medal winner. That’s a total of 9 winners!

Plus, just by entering the competition, your image is eligible to be featured in our soon-to-be-released Sample Kit

The three events are as follows and are all intentionally a bit obscure. We want to see your creative minds at work and see how your favorite artwork fits into these categories.

1. Event one: Unity
2. Event two: Pushing the Limits
3. Event three: Speed

The day each event opens, I will be posting a reminder of the event on the blog and what kind of artwork the judges will be looking for. Then, once the event closes, I will post the judges’ nominated images here on the blog for all of the Imagekind community to vote on. The winners will be selected based on what YOU, the Imagekind community, see as the artwork with the most stamina and endurance to stand up to the challenge.

So, how do you enter?

It’s easy. Submit your images by using the “Email a Friend” option in the “Share” function. Email them to contests@imagekind.com. In the description please write why you feel it would be a good fit for the theme. Check here for more details.
