31st Annual Art Competition

Our annual painting competition will be going ahead this year, although unusual circumstances means a twist on how it has been carried out traditionally in the past. This year our competition will be going virtual! 

This year's theme is 'A View from my window'. Participants are asked to capture a view from a window in their home that shows a bit of Gibraltar on this day. In change to previous years, the competition will be open for a 24 hour period, which will allow participants to choose the time of day they wish to draw, sketch, paint etc! 

Registration is via our sign up form  which must be completed before the day of the competition. On the 9th May at 9am you will be required to send a photograph of your chosen window and blank canvas or media choosen to art@gibraltarheritagetrust.org.gi . Participants then have until the 10th of May at 9am to submit a photograph or scanned copy of their artwork to art@gibraltarheritagetrust.org.gi.  Artworks submitted after the 9am deadline will not be accepted.  Please read the rules before entering the competition.
