Welcome to the "Life in an AI Era" 2025 Singapore Kids and Teens Art Competition, proudly organized by Visual Arts Centre! This exciting art competition invites young artists aged 8 to 16 to express their creativity and imagination through art. With two age categories—the Kids Group (8–12 years) and the Teens Group (13–16 years)—this is a wonderful opportunity for budding artists to showcase their talents, explore a futuristic theme, and compete for attractive prizes, including cash prizes, free art classes and certificates of award for the top three winners and finalists in each age group.
In a world where artificial intelligence is rapidly shaping how we live, learn, work, and communicate, our theme "Life in an AI Era" invites participants to explore the possibilities of this new technological age. What will our cities look like? How will we interact with AI in our daily lives? Can AI help us protect the environment or enhance creativity? Through this theme, we hope to spark curiosity and critical thinking about the role of technology in our future, while encouraging young minds to interpret the theme through their unique artistic lenses.
The purpose of this art competition is to encourage artistic expression, promote awareness of emerging technologies, and to provide a platform where young artists can reflect on the world they are growing up in. Visual Arts Centre believes in nurturing creativity and fostering a love for art from a young age. We are excited to see how our young participants imagine life with AI—from optimistic dreams to thoughtful concerns—and turn those visions into inspiring artworks.
Let your imagination take flight and show us your vision of the future. We can’t wait to see what you’ll create! Please scroll down below on more information and register for the art competition!
