Take part in MVF’s 60th Anniversary Logo Design Contest

2002-MV-Logo

2026 will mark a significant year for Montgomery Village because our community will celebrate its 60th Anniversary. Sixty years of pioneering vision and development, 60 years of fostering neighborly relationships and 60 years of community pride.

Montgomery Village Foundation (MVF) staff are putting together a plan to celebrate Montgomery Village turning 60 years old in 2026. As a precursor to the activities being planned, a logo to brand this special occasion is necessary. MVF is pleased to announce a 60th Anniversary Logo Design Contest, open to all Village residents, to initiate community participation in this upcoming Village-wide celebration.

The winning logo concept will be used, in whole or in part, in conjunction with all 60th Anniversary branding efforts and events, including in print, online or on merchandise. Flexibility is a key requirement, including the need to resize easily and to look good in black and white as well as color. The final version of the logo will need to be suitable for high-quality printing. Elements of the current registered Montgomery Village logo may be used but are not required.

The design and designer will be recognized in future issues of Montgomery Village News, as well as on social media, and of course receive bragging rights for the winning design!
