DESCRIPTION

The organization is seeking an Indigenous artist or an Indigenous artist collective to collaborate with its external design team in creating custom digital illustrations. These illustrations will be used across the organization's website, digital learning platform, reports, and digital publications, contributing to a cohesive and culturally grounded visual identity that reflects an Indigenous community in British Columbia.

The selected artist or collective will engage in creative collaboration, participating in early concept discussions and ongoing alignment with the brand and visual direction. Their role includes thoughtful concept development, visual storytelling, and the creation of a custom illustration system for digital use. Illustrations may range from hero images and supporting motifs to reusable visual elements suitable for a variety of platforms.

This contract will be for a one-year period, and will run parallel to a broader branding and website project being procured separately.
