Sticker Design Competition

Calling young artists and designers! Want the chance to have your artwork turned into a limited edition of stickers to be released across South Australia?

We’re looking for six awesome artworks to become part of an exclusive sticker sheet to release this October, with each sticker designed by a different South Australian teen.

The only rule? The word ‘Neo’ has to appear somewhere on each of your designs!

Entries have now closed.

Neo Sticker Template
  • Download the sticker template
  • Get making! You can create your sticker designs digitally, or print the template and draw, collage, or paint straight onto it. Any art materials or combination of art materials can be used as long as the file can be submitted at a high-resolution digitally. Don’t forget to include the word ‘Neo’ somewhere!
  • Submit your designs using the provided template and our online Entry Form by 15 September 2020

We want to showcase your work with other young people around South Australia! Neo will release a print run of 2000 sticker sheets this October!

If your work is selected, you might see your stickers...

  • Around South Australian schools
  • Included in our special Neo mail-out packs
  • Being handed out at Neo Full Moon on Saturday October 31
  • Stuck around the streets of South Australia!

Entries close on Tuesday 15 September 2020 at 5pm. We’ll notify you if your stickers are selected by Wednesday 30 September.

  1. Keep it simple! Remember, the sticker is only 6cm wide.
  2. Make sure text is clear and readable
  3. See the dotted line around the template of each circle? That’s called the ‘bleed’ - you can extend your design into this zone, but it allows trimming area for the printers. So go ahead and draw in that area, but don’t place any important detail in there. Check out this example template.

Make sure to run through this checklist before you enter your design...
