This design by Crafty Crafty correspondent Ellen Lindner is in the running to win the grand prize in the Brooklyn-based Center for Anti-Violence Education's current t-shirt contest.
Like most cities, New York is still a pretty tough place - often when you least expect it. Brooklyn's Center for Anti-violence Education does a lot of great work teaching folks in the community self-defense.
Why am I talking about this on a craft site? Well, you may know me as Crafty Crafty's New York correspondent - but I'm also an illustrator.
In recognition of CAE's efforts, I've done a design for their current t-shirt contest - quite a challenge, since we could only use three colors!
Now I'm in the public voting round, and I need your help! Pretty please?
All you have to do is visit the CAE contest page and stick in your name and email - signup to their excellent newsletter is optional. You don't need to be a New Yorker to enter - this contest is open to voters everywhere.
I'll keep you posted on how I do! Thanks for your support.
