London Transport Museum Presents The River Thames

An exhibition of the best entries from the Serco Prize for Illustration – 10 May – 3 June 2011

London Transport Museum, in partnership with the Association of Illustrators, is delighted to announce the 2011 Serco Prize for Illustration. This year, the theme is the River Thames and entries should feature the river as a central feature of London and London life.

The aim of the competition is to attract artwork for display that is both colourful and positively portrays the river as an exciting and varied place for Londoners and visitors alike. Whilst the theme is the river, it is desirable to include within the submitted artwork a representation of a mode or modes of transport on Transport for London’s portfolio.

Artists are also required to submit their own caption (in no more than 50 words) to explain the rationale and inspiration for their artwork.

The top three entries will receive a monetary award and may be used in an advertising and promotional campaign run by London Transport Museum. The top 50 entries will be displayed in an exhibition at London Transport Museum that will open on Tuesday 9 May 2011.
