ISO Undiscovered T-shirt Designer

3/20/2020

0 Comments

 
Have you got some time on your hands? Are you an artist? Do you like cash prizes? If you’ve answered YES to one or more of these questions, then we’ve got the ‘job’ for you! Toronto Typewriters wants to continue to support local artists and small businesses throughout this challenging time. So each month, we’ll be running a contest and public poll for the chance to get YOUR designs on a batch of locally printed T-shirts.


Here’s how it works: submit your finished design to us via website, DM, email, Facebook or messenger pigeon, whatever works best! Obviously, the design should prominently feature a typewriter, or something typewriter related, but the rest is up to you! Our staff will narrow it down to two options, and then we’ll run a poll on Instagram to choose the favourite.

If your T-shirt design is chosen as the winner, you will take home $100.00 PLUS $2.00 from the sale of every T-shirt (with your design) sold on the website for that month. Shirts will be available through our website and mailed directly to our customers. This process will cycle through every month.


For the skimmers:

WHAT: T-shirt design contest 


WHO: Graphic designers, artists, illustrators, doodlers or creative hopefuls

WHEN: Deadline to submit your design for this round will be April 4th, 2020  

WHERE: A CLEAR photo of your entry can be sent via email (torontotypewriter@gmail.com), Instagram DM (@torontotypewriters) or Facebook messenger (@torontotypewriters) 


WHY: Keep fresh shirts on the backs of typewriter enthusiasts, support local artists, support local business, and stay hip!

Toronto Typewriters' first type-in event for winter 2017!

Surely to be a great time, the first official type in for the year will be held on Saturday February 18th from 8-10pm @ Page One Cafe.

There will be tons of usable typewriters available but if you own one, bring it along!

We will be hosting games, discussion, and show off some of our very own typewriters. Martin Howard from Antique typewriters will also be bringing several his pre-1900's machines which are some of the rarest and historically significant machines in the world.

If you would like to RSVP to us or directly with Page One Cafe, let us know you'll be coming!

Cheers,
Toronto Typewriters.

Playing for only three night at the infamous Hot Docs theatre, a movie dedicated to these machines, their impact on the world, and the people who love them.

A must see movie! Rumour has it, it will be running a second stint in Toronto in February.

Using a typewriter is a great way to detach yourself from the endless world of clicks, screen loads, notifications and general distraction that comes with the world wide web.

Now there's a way to mesh the two worlds by connecting your typewriter to your computer, you can experience the joy of a manual typewriter while still logging your words for the digital world.

Hard to say if it's good or bad but definitely worth a try!

Check it out here! USB Typewriter MOD Kit_

Let us know what you think!
