LOGO CONTEST
LOGO CONTEST
WE NEED A LOGO! Deadline extended to June 30th at midnight Eastern Time!
We have this very very very old logo (the green oval one above) and well you see, Thayer Street is getting a facelift this summer and well we thought our logo needed one too! So...the Thayer Street District Management Authority, or TSDMA, is running a logo contest – with a cash prize! We need creative people with real, mad skills. Are you that person, or do you know that person? Look below for details or forward (link) to the most creative someone you know.
Thayer Street District Management Authority (TSDMA) will be retiring our very very very old logo. We will be putting it to rest. We are looking for a logo that will represent the new Thayer Street District. Regardless of what we choose to do with a new logo, we’d love to have one. We encourage you to have fun with this and pass it on to your designer like friends. With few rules and one possible big prize of one thousand dollars, yup one grand, why not submit? Here’s a little background info to help get the creative juices flowing it the possibility of $1000 wasn’t enough!
Learn about what we (the TSDMA) are all about...
The TSDMA was established by Thayer Street property owners and granted status to operate as a ‘Business Improvement District’ by the City of Providence Code of Ordinances and in accordance with RI General Law 45-59-14(b) in January 2006. The District is comprised of the area bounded by Lloyd Avenue, Hope Street, Waterman Street and the rear lot line of parcels that face the western side of Thayer Street. Over the years since our establishment, the district has undertaken the installation of new sidewalks, stamped crosswalks, trash cans, lighting, trees, recycling programs, daily sidewalk cleaning, trash and graffiti removal. In 2013, the City of Providence’s Department of Planning & Development worked with a consultant team and members of the TSDMA to prepare a plan for the future of the District. The Final Thayer Street Planning Study is now available online at www.thayerstreetdistrict.com. (Hint: contestants should definitely read this!)
As a Business Improvement District, the TSDMA oversees the management and maintenance of the district including:
TSDMA is governed by a Board of Directors made up of District property owners, merchants and representatives of Brown University. Day to day operations are overseen by our TSDMA Executive Director, Donna Personeus.

Character, Clean, Safe, Retail, District, Management, Recycle-friendly
The Final Thayer Street Planning Study (available online on www.thayerstreetdistrict.com) provides valuable material.

We want the logo to represent the Thayer Street District. The logo should be scalable.

We don’t have designs on a particular color pattern, but keep in mind that we will require three versions of the logo for our marketing purposes (RGB color, CMYK color and Grayscale). Trademarked or copyrighted works may not be used in the logo.
