Logo Redesign Contest
Are you a Buchanan or Town of Cortlandt resident with a talent for art and design flair? Our Village needs your artistic skills!
Deadline extended to October 15, 2021
The Village of Buchanan is holding a contest to redesign our Village seal, which appears on the Village letterhead and many other documents. We are looking to reflect the change from the current seal’s industrial symbols to the current environment emphasizing iconic Village features (Village Hall, the clock in the circle, Lents Cove Park), area history, and the local waterfront on the Hudson River.
Designs must be submitted by October 15, 2021. Questions? Contact Trustee Nick Zachary and Hendrick Hudson School District art teacher Jessica Nash by email.
Click here to download the announcement from the April Newsletter.
A panel will be formed to review all the designs submitted and select five finalists. Village residents will then vote to select the winning design. There will be a cash prize which will be announced later.
