The art palette is blank and waiting for you to free your imagination with an array of colors. Draw, paint, decoupage, be innovative artistically as the challenge is on to use creativity and imagination to put your thoughts into art.

Over the years, more than 429,000 participants have had the chance to enjoy the spirit of competition in sports, games, and an Art / Essay contest.
