Started on 1955 this contest can probably no longer be viewed simply as a commercial sponsorship, it has acquired the status of an institution and it is a testament to the enduring innocence of childhood and to the power and inventiveness of a child's imagination. To enter, you must be under 19 years of age by Friday, 27th February 2009 and you must be resident on the island of Ireland. You may enter up to two pieces of artwork. Your entry can be about anything that interests you. Your entry should not be smaller than A4 (29.7cm x 21.0cm) or larger than A2 (59.4cm x 42.0cm). You may use any type of paper, white, coloured, rough or smooth. The work that you submit may be drawn or painted in pencil, charcoal, pen and ink, crayon, pastel, watercolour, gouache, acrylics, oils, poster colour and collage. Alternatively, it may be submitted in digital format in any artwork software. Prints created from a lino block, wood blocks or any other methods may also be submitted. Your work should be original and unaided. Do not copy another person’s work. Young artists who receive first, second and third prize and special merit awards in each of the seven categories will be invited to the Awards Ceremony which will be held in Dublin each year.
deadline: February 27, 2009
