This year, UAL’s Black Creatives Hub is partnering with not just a shop to offer students and recent graduates the chance to have their illustrations featured in the first-ever UAL Black Creatives adult colouring collection.
Launching this October to mark Black History Month, the collection will be sold online and in-store at not just a shop, a curated retail space run by UAL that showcases products and creative work made by students and graduates.
This is a great opportunity to see your work professionally produced and shared with a wider audience, while contributing to an initiative supporting Black creatives. Proceeds from the collection will be reinvested to further develop the Black Creatives Hub.
- Your illustrations will be featured in the UAL Black Creatives colouring book.
- £100 fee per selected design (you can submit multiple designs)
- 2 copies of the final product
- Promotion of your work via UAL’s website and social media channels
Powerful, original illustrations that celebrate:
- Black history
- Black lived experiences
- Black culture and identity
- Black lines and shapes only (no colour, no text).
- Fun and engaging to colour.
- Any medium welcome, just make sure it’s clean and high quality
View the full brief (including terms & conditions)
- Current UAL students or recent graduates (any course, any level)
