The United Nations Office for Disarmament Affairs and the Harmony for Peace Foundation

have jointly launched the 2012 Art for Peace Contest.

We are calling on all young artists to use their creative talents to imagine

a “World Free of Nuclear Weapons.”

Whether you paint or draw, use watercolors or acrylics, pencils or crayons,

the Art for Peace Contest wants you to use your imagination to express

your vision for a World Free of Nuclear Weapons.

This contest is open to children and teens, ages 5 – 17, across the globe.

Wherever you live, you are eligible to enter this contest

Art is the universal language. Art speaks to our hearts and minds.
