Your voice, together with the voices of other children, will help create the largest sound library of children\u2019s and teens\u2019 ideas for a museum! In addition, the Youth Committee is being created\u2014a four-member teen panel made up of previous winners, who will actively participate in the final stage of evaluating the entries.<\/p>\n<p>The children\u2019s artworks will be showcased in an interactive digital exhibition as part of the 4th Cycladic Kids Festival in September, while the themes of the award-winning works will form the basis for workshops and artistic events.<\/p>\n\n  <!-- Rich Text Editor Start -->\n  <\/div>\n\n                  <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"section ContentBlock\"\n
