Urbania Magazine Call for Sponsors

Urbania Magazine Call for Sponsors

As part of the goal to engage readers and interact with advertisers, I have decided to have fun all year... We are having contests! To lesson the load of planning and to automate some of the features of the website, I am calling for anyone who wishes to be considered a sponsor of the winter contest by donating a prize. All you have to do is send the prize and cover letter to our address. 

As an alternative for digital products, you can email our address here and we will get back to you.

Here's what we are looking for:






Prizes that directly relate to literature and art.  It may be
an e-book
physical signed book
photograph/illustration/print
website membership
online course
dvd film
website review
consultation time
anything you provide as an expert to help authors market their book

What do you get as a sponsor?


I will promote the contest during its Winter run...hard.  Links to your website and your prize will be on the contest page and will expose you to new visitors. There is no fee involved to be a sponsor. Only the "cost" is providing what you're known for as a prize.






A paid sponsor option is available here if interested.








 To get started as  a sponsor, send the prize with a cover letter or complete the contact form of our publisher Art Official Media LLC and tell about your idea.

 Thanks for considering to be a sponsor this year. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to e-mail.  I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Urbania Magazine Cover

The magazine cover for the Urbania Magazine issue was inspired by the illustration "An American Evolution" by Jon Edwards. An edgy piece, that begs the question is evolution all about appearance? An why some readers may say no, I ask them to go look at top grossing companies in any industry and look at the images of the CEO, VP etc.

I'm stuck. My hair is long and nappy. Ironically, I never liked long hair and laughed at my friends that had braids. I kept my hair short and clean. I always had a job and never had employment issues. However, with the long hair and not-so clean cut, I find myself creating the jobs and money I get ,

Urban Cartoonist Eric Nyamor

After the Sean Delonas comic strips debacle, I decided to search for more diverse images of blacks depicted in comic strips. I found a cartoonist, Eric Nyamor who creates a unique take on perspectives in hip-hop and urban life.

He has a take on the Chris Brown situation in his latest cartoon.

Check out his website Hiphopillustrations.com to view more of his cartoons. An interview with Eric Nyamor along with his cartoon will appear in an issues of Urbania Magazine.

I will list another five to ten urban comic strips or cartoonists that offer in another post. Feel free to list any other urban comic cartoonists in the comments section. I will use the information to compile a list.
