For Children’s Week, the Office of the Advocate for Children and Young People together with the NSW Children’s Week Council is inviting entries for the NSW Children’s Week 2022 Art Competition. Children’s Week runs from 22 October – 30 October 2022.
The theme for Children's Week 2022 is "All Children have the right to a standard of living that supports their wellbeing and healthy development", drawn from Article 27 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.
The competition is open to all children and young people up to the age of 18 living in NSW. Children and young people can enter by creating an artwork that shows what they do for fun (dressing up in your favourite costume, eating your favourite food or playing with friends) or they can create an artwork that shows them doing something that makes them feel healthy and happy
Artworks can include drawings, paintings, photographs, digital illustrations or videos. It’s not about being a good artist, it’s about children and young people finding inspiration and sharing their voice through art. .
Nine winners (three winners for each age group: Under 5, 6-11, 12-18) will receive an award and prize. First prize $200 gift card / Second prize $100 gift card /Third prize $50 gift card. Class submissions are also welcome.
