National Art Contest

To support young people’s wellbeing in our Clubs and communities, we offer a variety of high-quality arts experiences for youth all year, culminating in the National Arts Contest. The National Arts Contest enables Club youth to develop their creativity and cultural awareness through visual arts. Youth ages 6-18 are encouraged to express their creativity by exhibiting their work for judging in local and national competitions using one of the following contest themes: "Setting Expectations – Being Your Best Self", "Speaking Up – Youth Voice & Leadership", "Social Justice Through the Arts", and "Wellness Inside and Out – Personal and Community Wellbeing". Pieces include photographs, paintings, mixed media art, video submissions, and more.
