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.
