Student Logo Design Contest
National Black Lives Matter at School is seeking student designs for our annual Week of Action. The design will be used nationwide to support organizing around our four core demands and 12 guiding principles. During the annual Week of Action thousands of educators and students wear their Black Lives Matter shirts to school. The T-shirt played a significant role in the visibility of the Black Lives Matter at School movement, and you get to help us celebrate that!
The winner of this contest will have their design featured as the 2026 BLM at School logo on programming graphics and apparel. They will be recognized in a newsletter publication, on social media, and will receive a t-shirt featuring their design, as well as a cash prize.
