As one of the preliminary steps, the committee has decided to organize a poster design competition to encourage Armenian youth to speak Armenian.

All high school, college, and university students are eligible to participate in the contest. The deadline for submitting the posters is March 25.

The goal of the poster should be to create interest and encouragement towards usage of Armenian language. The size of poster should be 11×17 square inches, which will be printed and distributed to public for posting at their premises (educational entities, social-sporting-scouting-cultural organizations, work places, etc.).

All received posters will be reviewed by a special jury committee.

Those who are interested to participate in this contest should send their work, including their contact information, to the following address:

Armenian Language Revitalization Committee
c/o Western Prelacy
6252 Honolulu Avenue
La Crescenta, CA 91214
