THE 2010 Shanghai World Expo organizer is offering a top prize of US$20,000 in a design competition for Expo-themed souvenirs.
The entries can include artwork, teapots, sculptures and jewelry. They can be made in paper, wood, cloth, red porcelain, silk, metal and stone.
The entries must involve the Shanghai World Expo emblem, logos, the mascot Haibao or the "Better City, Better Life" Expo theme.
The global competition will have professional and amateur levels.
A top award will be selected with two first prizes, three second prizes, 10 third prizes and 50 prizes. The awards will total US$80,000.
All the winning entries will be manufactured and sold to the public before and during the Expo.
Participants can send models or design drawings to Room M22, No. 2299 Yan'an Road W. on the sixth floor of the ShanghaiMart. The hotline is 6236-5109. The deadline is 6pm on February 28.
The Shanghai World Expo so far has more than 4,000 official souvenirs.
