# Announcing: The Graph Contest Winners **Published by:** [Layer3](https://paragraph.com/@layer3xyz/) **Published on:** 2022-05-27 **URL:** https://paragraph.com/@layer3xyz/announcing-the-graph-contest-winners ## Content We’re excited to feature our newest contest winners for The Graph! The Graph is a decentralized protocol for indexing and querying data from blockchains. It allows anyone to build and publish open APIs called subgraphs, making data more easily accessible. Instead of developing and operating proprietary indexing servers, developers and companies can build server-less applications that run entirely on public infrastructure with The Graph. We partnered with The Graph to help promote Graph Day 2022, a full-day event at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco with some of web3’s most impactful developers, investors, and core protocol specialists. With Layer3, The Graph was able to engage our thriving community of contributors to beginners about The Graph through Twitter threads and present event details through beautifully designed infographics. They were even able to crowdsource 30-second hype trailers from talented videographers. We received over 80 submissions for 3 contests posted by The Graph, spanning social media, video, and design. Check out some of the winning submissions below!Design an infographic promoting Graph Day 🏆 marcola.eth marcaum @marcusboyds Hey guys!
