Calling amateur photographers, artists and graphic designers!

As part of marking what would have Margaret Thatcher's 100th birthday, SKDC are running a ‘Design a Postcard Competition’, where your artistic vision has the chance to be sold as a postcard for residents, tourists and visitors to purchase from the Visitor Information Point inside the Guildhall Arts Centre.

All entries will be displayed as part of an exhibition from Monday 13th – Saturday 18th October during the week of events and activites marking the Centenary of Thatcher.

Your postcards can be on any theme related to Grantham, whether it’s History, architecture, events and people, it’s up to you!

Postcards can be designed in any medium – a scenic photograph, painting or watercolour, or digitally designed.

They should be in standard postcard size 148mm x 105mm (A6) and include the town’s name, ‘Grantham’.

Judging Criteria:

• Creativity and originality
• Representation of the town's character or history
• Aesthetic appeal

Entries preferably should be submitted by email as jpegs to jade.porter@southkesteven.gov.uk.

Alternatively, hard copies can be handed in at the Guildhall Arts Centre Box Office.

The closing date for entries is Friday 26th September.

With your entry, please also complete and return the submission form which can be downloaded from here. SUBMISSION FORM

We look forward to seeing your Grantham Postcards!
