2025 FALL FORAY BANDANA

Design this year's Fall Foray bandana and win a cash prize! 

The winning design will be printed on a 22x22 in square bandana (print space 18x18 in) to be given as a gift to all participants of this year's Fall Foray. 

​

CASH PRIZE: $100

​

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR: Fungi, of course! We love all mushrooms, but if you are looking for inspiration, mushrooms specific to Utah are the dearest to our heart, and fall-season mushrooms are always on theme. Bandana patterns are often concentric to work with any way it is folded (most often diagonally), but it doesn't have to be. We recommend designs that lean into line work to minimize ink weight. ​​​​​​​​​​​
