This is HOW IT WORKS:

1. Registration opens on TUESDAY 10 April 2018 and once registered, you will have access to a GTS portal website area to get all the information. (This will be accessed via your account page on the makeartthatsells.com website)
2. On MONDAY 25 June, you will have access to the first professional-level creative brief, along with details of how to submit it via a private web portal. This creative brief will comprise a multi-page downloadable PDF with visuals, color ideas, Lilla’s tips, and more. You will need to submit your piece to a dedicated online gallery by 9am PST / 12 noon EDT / 5pm BST on MONDAY 9 July, 2018.
3. All pieces submitted by the deadline are reviewed by Lilla Rogers, and a shortlist of 50 will be selected.

5. The online gallery will be open WEDNESDAY 25 JULY TO MONDAY 30 JULY, 2018. Our panel of judges will choose five finalists, and a public vote will determine the sixth finalist (‘The People’s Choice’)
6. We announce the list of finalists on www.lillarogers.com on WEDNESDAY 1 AUGUST and email the third and final professional-level creative brief by email to those finalists.
7. All finalists will be contacted via email to arrange a one-to-one Skype call with Lilla. This will give them the chance to get to know each other, and discuss the contract and opportunities available to them should they win.
8. Lilla will select the winner from among the six finalists, and this will be announced on www.lillarogers.com on FRIDAY 17 August, 2018
