Here is an excellent opportunity for children and young adults from the ages of 5 to 25 to enter a visual arts program and share their artistic creativity with the world.

It’s an opportunity for youths and young adults… I’m only 42 and there is no drawing contests for me. I hope you take this information and share it with and have you kids enter it.

Sustaining / Creating

A National Juried Exhibition for Emerging Artists with Disabilities, ages 16-25

 
 

Deadline: July 8, 2012

 
 

Sustaining / Creating asks emerging artists to showcase work that illuminates innovative viewpoints on sustainability and contemporary creativity. Beyond its scientific definition, sustainability references notions of responsibility and stewardship of our natural world in all facets of human interaction-from the environmental to the cultural. Sustainability indicates the capacity to endure. Fifteen artists will be selected for an exhibition at the Smithsonian and will share $60,000 in cash awards. Entry deadline is July 8. Enter today!

 
 

Yo Soy…Je Suis…I am…

International Art Program for Children with Disabilities, ages 5-18

 
 

Deadline: July 15, 2012

 
 

This program presents a unique opportunity for student-artists with disabilities from around the world to display their artwork side-by-side in an online exhibition. A selection of artwork from the online entries will be chosen for a live exhibition at the United States Department of Education in Washington D.C. Children with disabilities, ages 5-18, are encouraged to create a self-portrait that illustrates who they are and who they will be. Self-portraits allow artistic freedom for children with disabilities to celebrate the unique qualities they have to share with the world. Entry deadline is July 15, 2012. Enter today!

 
 

Sustaining/Creating is sponsored by Volkswagen Group of America.
