The Santiago del Teide City Council announces that the deadline for submitting the postcard designs that will participate in the municipality’s XVI Christmas Postcard Contest is now open.
The submission period will be open until 9:00 p.m. on November 26 of this year and those young people residing in the municipality who are over 12 years old and under 30 years old may participate.
Regarding the prizes, as in previous years, the contest will distribute three prizes, the first of them with a value of 150 euros, while the second will obtain a prize of 100 euros and there will be a third prize of 50 euros.
Likewise, and as in other editions, the theme of the contest will be free, although themes with racist, xenophobic content or that violate the dignity of people will not be accepted. Similarly, designs that apologize for violence or contain sexist or political themes will not be accepted, taking into account that the postcard must be delivered in paper or digital format, provided that it has a pseudonym that will appear behind the design.
Regarding the form of delivery of the designs, they must be presented in person or by ordinary mail to the address of the City Council (Calle La Placeta, nº 10 -38690-, Santiago del Teide), although, they can also be collected at the Check-in at the Town Hall, at the Playa de La Arena Mayor’s Office, at the municipal libraries as well as at the Tamaimo Youth House and the different youth centers.
Regarding the presentation of the same, inside a sealed envelope and separately, the corresponding registration will be delivered with the personal data of the author -name, surname, ID, address, telephone and, where appropriate, email address-, although the pseudonym used in the designs should be reflected on the outside of it.
Finally, it is worth mentioning that the jury’s decision will be announced as of November 27 and will be made public through a press release, social networks and municipal website; highlighting that the winner of the contest will be notified by telephone.
