Welcome to the 2024 National Arts Contest Virtual Art Show

     Hosted by the Boys & Girls Club of Lancaster

 

Boys & Girls Club of Lancaster seeks to provide innovative and high-quality arts programming for all youth that stimulates learning and academic success; inspires creativity; explores future careers; and engages in self-expression, critical thinking and problem solving. This year's theme, The Joy in Our Stories, celebrates the power of positive stories to uplift and inspire joy through a diverse range of artistic expressions.

​

National Arts Contests enable Club youth to develop their creativity and cultural awareness. Youth are encouraged to share their creative expressions by participating in a series of art competitions. Youth artwork is exhibited and judged locally, regionally and nationally. Members can submit artwork in a variety of categories, including visual arts, digital arts, performing arts, and applied arts. Participants ages 6-18 compete in four age groups, as follows:  ages 6-9, ages 10-12, ages 13-15, and ages 16-18.
