The Decatur Book Festival (DBF) is preparing for a momentous occasion – its 20th anniversary – and it’s inviting talented designers to be a part of the celebration. This year’s theme, “20 Years of Stories”, calls for a vibrant and engaging design that captures the spirit of shared narratives, diverse voices, and a thriving community. The organization is envisioning a bold, inclusive design, reminiscent of a joyful 20th birthday – a visual explosion of color and movement, perhaps depicting books bursting open like fireworks, characters dancing through a crowd, or pages transforming into scenes brimming with imagination and wonder. DBF are looking for a vertical design that can be featured on T-shirts, posters, flyers, and digital media.
