We wanted to share info about a fabulous Children's Art competition currently running at JAR Project. It closes on Saturday 7th November so be sure to get your entries in before then. It's completely free to enter with great prizes to be won and is open to ALL children in the UK aged between 3 and 15.
JAR Project are a small UK charity focussing on finding a cure for juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) as well as raising awareness of the condition and providing support and information to newly diagnosed children and those further down the JIA journey.
They receive no government or grant funding and so are reliant on fundraising and donations to support their vital work. When an organisation or individual arranges a fundraising activity, it's always nice to be able to say thank you. So when they needed new "thank you" cards printed, they thought it would be a great opportunity for them to be designed by a child through this competition.
As well as a main prize bundle for each age category winner, there are 30 runners up prizes to be won!
The runners up will be drawn at random and the main age category winners will be judged by celebrity judges artist Sarah Maycock and musician Tom Williams. Sarah's work includes pieces for the Natural History museum, BBC Wildlife magazine and the Rugby World Cup.
