 |  | The Art Alert competition is asking children and young people aged up to 18 to design a poster about North Warwickshire. The poster can celebrate the best aspects of the area or can show what needs to be improved.
Poster ideas
To help your poster design, you might like to draw some of the following:
Your favourite place - like a park or playground
A special building
Your favourite animal
Historic connections - like mining and hat making
Your favourite tree or flower
An important subject - like recycling, pollution or litter
Posters can also include council slogans - like North Warwickshire: why not take a closer look - or you can think up your own slogan.
