The International Child Art Foundation has announced the launch of the #MyFavoriteSport campaign, aimed at helping to provide young people an opportunity for inclusion in the Paris Olympics.

By facilitating a campaign to create artwork of their favorite Olympic sports, the ICAF aims to foster the Olympic values of excellence, respect, and friendship.

Students aged 14 to 20 will upload and share their artwork with family and friends to get their votes. Such "Create & Share" and "View & Vote" activities can go viral, engaging millions. The gold, silver, and bronze winners will be the young artists who garner the most votes.

ICAF has served American children as their national arts organization and the world's children as their global arts organization since 1997. It employs the power of the arts to cultivate creativity and grow mutual empathy in a world lacking these key attributes that make us human.

An identity development leader, ICAF inspires young people to embrace the "Artist-Athlete Ideal" of the creative mind and healthy body (mente sana in corpo sano). This new identity awakens the dormant inner artist or the slumbering inner athlete for holistic development.

Contest Guidelines

Upload Your Artwork

Once you have an account, you can easily upload your artwork by clicking on the 'Upload' button. Make sure to follow the guidelines for file format and size.

Submission Guidelines and Formats

We accept different formats, including paintings, drawings, and digital art. Your creativity knows no bounds! Upload your work in JPEG or PNG.

Size Restrictions

Artwork size should not exceed 10MB to ensure proper display and evaluation during the competition. Recommended size is 1920x1080 pixels.

Originality Requirements

We want everyone's art to be fresh and original! So, if we find art that looks too much like someone else's, we might have to take it down. Remember, it's always best to add your unique twist to everything you create to avoid any copyright problems.

Yes, we do accept AI artwork. However, this must be clearly indicated in your submission on what tools you used to create your artwork to ensure fair judgment.
