🎯 About the Competition

At the Tip of the Pencil: Mutual Understanding and Living Together calls on artists to create drawings that reflect themes of mutual understanding, human connection, and coexistence. The competition provides a platform for artists of all levels to share their unique perspectives and promote visual storytelling that fosters empathy between people and cultures.

📌 How It Works:

✅ Participants must submit a digital image or scanned copy of their drawing, along with their full name and a brief description of the work.
✅ Participation is free of charge.
✅ Submitted drawings must not have been entered in any previous competition.
✅ Files must be in PNG or JPEG format, with a minimum resolution of 300 dpi.
✅ Digital drawings are also accepted. Minor edits and color adjustments are allowed.
✅ If identifiable individuals appear in the work, participants must obtain their permission before submission.
✅ Selected drawings will be displayed on our website.
✅ Final results will be determined through a combination of public voting and evaluations by a jury of experienced artists.

This competition is part of an international collaboration between the Dunaj Institute Dialogue and Balturka Cultural Academy. Each participating country will hold a national competition and select two winners. These six finalists will advance to the Grand Final in Poland.

During the final event, the selected artists will present their work, and the overall winners will be announced.

By entering the competition, participants agree that their submitted drawings may be used by Pigi KoinSEp, Balturka Cultural Academy, and Dunaj Institute Dialogue on social media and in promotional materials.
