Orange Shirt Day 2025 Design Contest

By entering the Orange Shirt Day Youth Design Contest, participants confirm they are Indigenous youth in grades K–12 and residents of Newfoundland and Labrador. All designs must be original, created in black and white only, and submitted on 8.5” x 11” white paper. Entries must be received by August 27, 2025, and late submissions will not be accepted. The winner will receive a small prize (to be determined based on winner’s location) and their design will be featured on the 2025 Orange Shirt Day t-shirt. By entering, the student and their parent/guardian agree that, if selected as the winner, the student may be photographed and interviewed about their design, and their name, photograph, and interview may be shared on First Light’s social media, website, and promotional materials. We will work with the winner to ensure comfort in promotional materials (i.e. explore audio or text only interview, if photographs are not preferred). All entrants grant First Light the right to reproduce, modify, and use their submitted design for Orange Shirt Day 2025 and related promotional purposes. Judges’ decisions are final, and First Light reserves the right to adjust the winning design to meet printing requirements. Participation in the contest constitutes acceptance of these terms.
