OJA Branding

The Online Journalism Awards logo is reminiscent of the OJA trophy itself. The primary color palette is a series of blues as a nod to the OJA’s facilitators, the Online News Association. The secondary palette of golds are used to honor the OJA winners. Download logos.

Primary Logo

The main OJA logo is used in official documents as the main mark of the program. When used specifically in reference to winners, the all-gold mark is used.

Secondary Logo

The secondary OJA logo references the acronym of the awards, allowing the logo to be used in situations where a wider logo is preferable. Again, gold is used when specifically referring to winners of OJAs.
