Ladoos: Pink and Blue Competition

At the first Kaur Voices conference in 2006, the Sikh youth suggested a ‘re-invention’ of a traditional custom.  No longer merely celebrating boys, “Ladoos: Pink and Blue” would celebrate the birth of all Sikh children.  In 2011, we are making this a reality.

Now, we need your help.

We aim to create a gift box that would include health-related brochures, inspirational Sikh literature, and a number of “Sikh Baby Firsts” – a kara, a gutka, a bib (proclaiming a proud new Singh and Kaur), and many other Sikh-inspired items.  The decorative box will serve as a keepsake that will be found in the homes of all Sikhs and to be kept and cherished for years to come.

We are seeking artists, designers, and all creative types to help us design the box.

Submissions must be in by 7/15/11.  Judges will select the best 3 designs and then Sikhs from all over the world will vote on the one they like best.  The winner will get attribution, a $100 visa gift card, and the satisfaction of seeing their design mass-produced and finding a permanent place in Sikh homes throughout the world.  Help us get out the word!
