CELF Community + Curation
@celfmagazine is a bilingual (Español + English) curation project powered by Steem. CELF aims to build a decentralized community model of growth with a focus on culture, literature, art and engagement.
The CELF curation project held its first community challenge over the summer with a call to creative writers. This first writing challenge was an effort to draw out more collaboration amongst Steemians in addition to draw the spotlight towards a new curation project - @celfmagazine! And now, we're on to the heavily anticipated Part 2. We are happy to announce and collaboratively host another contest, this time for all illustrators and artists on Steem.

Steem is a powerful forum for global creativity. With this contest, we hope to introduce you to one of the most exciting new curation initiatives on the blockchain and incentivize you to partake in their first illustration challenge! The team at CELF + Sndbox are calling ALL illustrators on the blockchain, regardless of genre or style.
