Registration Deadline: August 26, 2011

For Designers & Artists:
Mason is hosting a design event in the Toronto west-end community of the Junction from October 18-30, 2011, pairing up designers & artists with design-savvy retailers to create jaw-dropping window installations. Come out and show us what you’ve got by working with some amazing products in an incredible area of the city.

How It Works
After registering, come meet us for the kick-off meeting in mid-September to receive your project kit and to chat with the other project designers. Teams will be given a set budget and a retail space on Dundas West strip in the Junction. You will then have a month to design, plan and construct your installation incorporating the product offered by the retailer. The install will happen over the course of one day while the shop is closed. All displays will be on show for a duration of two weeks.

What's in It for You?

• A chance to show off your talent
• Meet up with other amazing local designers/artists & retailers
• Get involved with the Junction design community
• Get your name out there through the event marketing

Registration
Participants must register before Friday August 26th. No fee required. Participants may work individually or as part of a team. Please visit www.mason-studio.com/showoff to download a registration form.
