“WHERE THE SPIRIT DOES NOT WORK WITH THE HAND, THERE IS NO ART.”
Leonardo da Vinci
We encourage children ages 4-10 to submit their creations celebrating friendship. Your submissions will be featured on social media — Tag us!
The deadline to submit is Monday, May 23, 2022. After all the entries are received, a jury of local Ottawa artists will select the winners.
To make this accessible for all, we ask that all artwork be made on a standard letter size paper (8.5”x11”). Children and youth can use pencil crayons, paints, pastels, or mixed media. Take a photo of your artwork and submit it along with a completed form.
The Strega Nona series returns by popular demand! This year, we will be featuring two exciting new stories— Strega Nona Takes a Vacation, and Strega Nona’s Harvest.
