About Chinook Book
Chinook Book is where good people and good businesses gather to create a better economy. A better economy where more money stays local and where the businesses that give back are the ones that thrive.
In each Chinook Book you'll find hundreds of offers from local restaurants, grocers, yoga studios, coffee shops, bike stores, hardware stores and toy stores. What they all share in common is a commitment to giving back to their community and to doing business in an ethical way. In addition to deals, each Chinook Book has articles on local resources and neighborhood maps to help you love where you live.
Chinook Book is sold at local retailers and by hundreds of local school and non-profit groups as a community-oriented fundraiser.
The Cover
We want the cover of Chinook Book in each city we serve to express the unique spirit of that place. What it feels like to live there. What you love about it. The vibe. As you'll see from the covers we chose last year, this can take many forms, but the abiding themes are connection and love of place.
The Submissions
We'll be choosing a cover art winner for each of the following five cities and surrounding areas. Ideally you'll be from this place or will have lived there once.
- Portland, Oregon
- Seattle & Puget Sound
- Minneapolis/St Paul
- Denver & Boulder
- Bay Area
The Prize
Each winner will receive $500 and be featured in Chinook Book. Winner's art will be on the cover of the 2013 Chinook Book in both print and mobile, released in September 2012.
