Submissions for the 2023 Canadian Art Inspiration Student Challenge are now open.

The Canadian Art Inspiration Student Challenge is a celebration of art from across the country, with Canada’s future artists at its heart. Open to students from Grade 7 through Grade 12, we invite submissions of artworks inspired by or responding to leaders in Canadian art history and major Canadian artworks. For art activity ideas, see our Student Creativity Booklet.

Awards will be announced in June of this year. Finalists’ artworks will be showcased in an online exhibition, and prizes will be awarded in different age groups (Grades 7 to 9; Grades 10 to 12), with $500 for first prizes and $250 for honourable mentions.

Please consult our 2023 Student Challenge Rules & Regulations, and download the 2023 Submission Form.
