Competition details are as follows: Don’t Panic Poster Competition - Design a poster using the theme of ‘Death’ as your inspiration.

The winner’s artwork will also be printed on the Don’t Panic poster, and 80 thousand copies distributed throughout the UK. We will also supply the winner with 20 flat copies without advertising on the reverse, and sell 20 signed and 200 unsigned copies via our website, splitting the revenue with the artist. Previous Don’t Panic artists have included Banksy, Dr Parsons, Stanley Donwood and Elliot Thoburn, among others.

The launch night for our Don’t Panic Exhibition is 1st Sept 07, it would be great for you to join us for a few drinks. All details are on the attached flyer.
