The Museum needs a new logo - can you help by designing one for it?
The museum needs a logo that can be used on the website and on documents and we would like local children to help design it for us.
The design can be the museums name or initials and can include one of the museums exhibits.
The artwork can be created using pencils, crayons, charcoal, or paints such as watercolours but not computer generated and no glitter or raised elements please.
Submissions should be no larger than A4 in size.
There are three age categories:
8 and under
9-11
12-18
(as on 31st August 2026).
Children must live in the two villages or attend one of the village schools.
The winning entry will then be made into a full working logo by W3 Design Company based in Kelvedon who are kindly donating their time.
Closing date for submissions is 1st October 2026
There will be prizes for each age category of £15 gift voucher and the overall winner £25 gift voucher.
The entries should be handed into the museum and on the reverse it should show the childs name, age, along with the name and contact details of a parent or guardian. If the child lives outside the villages then the names of the school attended should be shown. Up to 3 entries can be submitted but onyl one prize if chosen.
The competition will be judged by the museum stewards and W3 Designs.
