CAIR-LA Sponsors T-shirt Contest

Have you been walking down the street, stuck in traffic, talking to some friends, cooking some biryani or eating some baklava and thought of something quite unique, quirky, funny yet thought-provoking and said to yourself, "Hey! Ya know.. that would be great on a t-shirt!"

Well brothers and sisters, ladies and gentlemen, and every one in between -- strap on your seatbelts, buckle up, sit down, swallow that piece of baklava or samosa and get ready because now's your chance to put that great idea of yours on a t-shirt!!!!!!
 
Don't spit out your baklava, you read correctly!
 
CAIR- Greater Los Angeles Area is sponsoring a t-shirt contest. We want to see any idea, thought, saying, graphic, slogan, image, play on words, figure of speech, graphic design you've had, created or even put down on paper!  


We are looking for a unique, creative design that embodies the essence of CAIR. We know this is a challenging task, so here are some thoughts to help guide you:
 

"I'm Muslim....don't panic!"
"Airport Security is my BFF"
"Brother, your beard isn't long enough"
  
Be creative, use your imagination, and have fun! Just keep it clean and thought-provoking.
