International Peace Poster
For over 30 years, kids all over the world have been drawing what peace looks like to them. Their amazing art helps everyone imagine a more peaceful world.
This competition is only for young artists between the ages of 11 to 13 years old.
For over three decades, Lions clubs around the globe have been sponsoring a very special art contest in schools and youth groups. Creating peace posters gives children everywhere the chance to express their visions of peace and inspire the world through art and creativity. Young people with vision impairments may enter an essay on the same subject theme each year.

"Peace is not just about ending wars: it requires each of us to live with kindness, to solve problems, and to influence others around us with our positive actions."
