The theme for our 2025 May contest is "Childhood Memories." Let the memory take you back to a time when your imagination had no limits, and you saw the world with fresh eyes. It could be a favorite activity or outing, such as flying a kite, going to the zoo, drawing, or swimming in the lake. It may be a treasured toy, a favorite food, or a beloved pet. It could be a fun family vacation, a special moment with a friend or relative, or a cherished holiday tradition. Even a favorite color, the possibilities are endless. Recalling fond childhood memories can create a sense of nostalgia, evoking personal emotions along with it. Drawing on these feelings, artists can create authentic and relatable works that resonate with others. So let go and channel your inner child: imaginative and uninhibited. Most importantly, have fun!
