International Kids' Contest 2025

EDUCATION

MARCH 12, 2025

The 12th International Kids’ Art Contest organized  by the Museum of Cycladic Art invites young artists aged 4 to 15 to step into the role of environmental protectors. With the theme “Guardians of the Cyclades,” this year’s contest aims to educate and inspire children about safeguarding the unique natural and cultural heritage of Greece’s Cyclades islands.

Through creativity and imagination, contest participants will be encouraged to envision a world in which the environment is protected and sustainable practices ensure a bright future for the next generations. The contest provides a meaningful way for young artists to express their concerns, dreams, and solutions for protecting our planet through artistic representation.

This year’s artists will create original works in response to the following prompts:

Who is Your Cycladic Guardian?

How can your Guardian contribute to protecting the environment for future generations?

Running from March 12 to May 9, 2025 (entries submission at kidscontest.cycladic.gr/en), the contest will culminate in an exhibition of selected works on September 27, 2025, at the City of Athens Arts Center of the Municipality of Athens as part of the Museum of Cycladic Art’s 3rd Cycladic Kids Festival. This highly anticipated event will celebrate the creativity and vision of young artists from around the world while promoting awareness of environmental protection.
