The organisers are looking for work from both student and professional illustrators on the theme of Secret London. Here's what the Association of Illustrators has to say:
“Entries can depict little known or unusual aspects of the Capital's history, culture, characters and communities - past or present. This is an exciting challenge for artists to celebrate a vibrant, multi-layered London in a way it has never been seen before."
