An exciting opportunity has been created (by ADT and the legacy funding from the dissolution of the Arts and Crafts Guild) to instigate a competition to promote the work of young artists in Alyth.
The competition will have two age categories: under 10 and between 11 and 18, on the 1st September 2023.
Art work submitted should be connected to Alyth, however loosely, and on the theme of “Reflections”.
The work can be in any medium: painting, charcoal, crayon, collage, mixed media, three dimensional or any other form.
There will be prizes for each age group in the form of vouchers to be spent in local businesses and we should like to hold an exhibition of finished work to celebrate the creativity of participants. The competition will run until the end of September and submission of work will initially be by a photograph of the work, which should be sent by email to the address below.
As the school holidays are upon us we hope that these may provide an opportunity to research, reflect and develop a piece of work in line with the guidelines.
Remember:
- Art work can be in any medium
- Work should be related to the theme of “Reflections”
- There should be some connection with Alyth
- There are two age groups
- The competition will close at the end of September
- There will be a judging panel, initially looking at photographs of the finished work
- An exhibition of the art work will take place after judging
- Vouchers will be awarded to the top performers in each category
- Photos of work should be submitted to: artcompetition@alyth.online
- Submissions by 30th September 2023
We very much hope that this will inspire all young artists to develop their artistic ideas and showcase their talents and we look forward to receiving a lot of submissions.
