Unbound explores how fear confines our creativity. Ideas should be shared and explored, but our insecurities often get in the way. Through the power and vulnerability of collaboration, our creativity flourishes and reaches its full potential, ultimately liberating and transforming the creatives themselves.

Call for Entries is open now!

Creative Best is the annual awards competition held by the Columbus Society of Communicating Arts. Each year, our organization gathers the outstanding works submitted by professionals and students alike in Central Ohio. Creative Best is open to CSCA members and non-members living within 75 miles of Columbus. Students enrolled in a school or university located in the state of Ohio may enter their student work completed within an accredited arts, design, business, or communication curriculum. Winners will be honored at our annual awards show.

Submissions for all categories in the Creative Best 2024 show will continue until 11:59 PM on October 16th.

Online submissions will be accepted for all categories. Work will be viewed digitally and should follow digital or video submission guidelines:

  • When possible, digital work meant to be viewed digitally (websites, apps, banner ads, etc.) should be submitted as a link to live content. When not possible, please submit locally running prototypes or PDFs at the work’s intended size.
  • Submitted videos (or series of 3 or fewer related videos submitted together as a single entry) should total no more than 3 minutes. If you have a longer video, please send a 3-minute cut. Please submit in .mov or .mp4 format.
  • Work will be judged online, and judges will view your work as you send it. For textural or dimensional pieces, like books and merch, we encourage including photos of the work as a whole, not just flat images.

For any questions or more information on accepted formats, email info@cscarts.org.
