New Century of Soul Design Contest

We stand at the edge of a new century. In 2019, Memphis will experience a unique moment: celebrating the past through our 200th anniversary while embracing the next 100 years. Together, we celebrate and embrace A New Century of Soul. And together, we inspire the next generation of artists, activists, and innovators.

It takes soul to find a rhythm that’s all your own, to give more than you take, and to change the world around you. It takes soul to be a Memphian.

Memphis has changed the world, and we’re not done yet. We are a city of doers, dreamers, and believers. We create, we invent, we experiment. That’s what drives this unstoppable city, and that’s what drives us into A New Century of Soul.

Welcome to Memphis, our city of soul. Don’t forget to bring yours.
