Alumni Expression of Interest – Artwork for OGA Merchandise
The Old Girls’ Association (OGA) is exploring the creation of new merchandise for our alumni community. To bring this vision to life, we are inviting Expressions of Interest (EOIs) from alumni who would like to contribute a custom artwork or design for consideration.
This is your chance to showcase your artistic flair, share your creative vision, and leave a lasting mark on something special for the OGA community.
We anticipate this project will begin in 2026, and collecting EOIs now allows us to prepare and stay connected with alumni who would like to take part.
If you are an illustrator, graphic designer, painter, or passionate creative, we would love to hear from you!
