Sakura trees are nearing their end while summer is just around the corner. Cold and gloomy days begone. The colors of summer brighten before us, while Japan Impact holds its traditional contest in order to find the gem that will become its next edition’s poster ! All those artistically inclined are welcome to send us their contest entry at concours.affiches@japan-impact.ch

As the adage says, if it works, don’t fix it, and so does our posters policy. We would like your creativity to dazzle us with a theme that is close to our hearts for 10 years now: Japan. Since we mix the traditional and the modern during the convention, we’d love for the poster to do the same.

The winner will receive the first prize of 700 Swiss francs and will commit to making an official poster for the tenth edition of Japan Impact, that will take place in February 2018 in Lausanne, Switzerland ! We also offer a second place of 100 Swiss francs to the runner-up, and, if for whatever reason the winner is unable to finish the poster, we will call on them to make their poster instead.

The deadline is July 7th 2017 at 23:59 (GMT+1).

On your pencils, tablets and lasers ! We are very much looking forward to seeing all your wonderful ideas ! If you have any questions, you may ask them at : concours.affiches@japan-impact.ch

Good luck ! And may the odds be ever in your favour.
