Visual Arts Competition
Creatives in Communities
The Ardú Foundation invites you to join in the Creatives in Communities
2020 has been a difficult year, but in so many ways it’s brought our communities closer together. At the Ardú Foundation, we want to celebrate Ireland’s community spirit this festive season with our Creatives in Community competition.
Join Creatives in Communities
Ireland is a nation of creatives, known around the world for storytelling, music, art and literature. At the Ardú Foundation, we want to see this creativity bring cheer to communities this Christmas.
Open to everyone of all ages, the Ardú Foundation’s Creatives in Community competition is on a mission to find the pictures that put a smile on the faces of everyone in your local community.
On Tuesday 1st of December, we’ll be selecting the winners who will go on to have their images turned into printed cards that will go on sale in their local communities in the countdown to Christmas.
Be part of a Global Movement!
By taking part in Creatives in Community, you’ll be part of a global movement celebrating #GivingTuesday on Tuesday 1st of December.
As one of the fasting growing international movements, it’s your opportunity to join millions of people around the world undertaking acts of kindness and charitable initiatives at the beginning of the Christmas period.
