3x3 SHOWS 2010
PROFESSIONAL SHOW - DEADLINE: MARCH 15
The 3x3 ProShow is the only truly international competition for illustration. No other show is as completely international as ours. While many shows showcase the work of their own country's illustrators, 3x3 features the best work from all over the world.
Each year we receive entries from all corners of the globe and we're the only show where the judging panels are truly international.
And we're the only show that puts their annual on the newsstand at a price that every art director can afford. And with our unique size we're front and center on the shelf. Greater visibility for our winners. Greater visibility for illustration as a whole.
Plus our winners will be invited to participate in our next 3x3 Illustration Directory which is mailed out free to a highly targeted list of 6,100 art directors and art buyers in the US.
This year we continue to streamline our entry process and have lined up an impressive panel of judges.
