Empowering the Next Generation of Artists

Define the Future of Creative Expression

Current Contest

2026 Annual Theme: Digital Dreams

In an era where the boundary between digital and reality continues to blur, creativity can move beyond screens, algorithms, and virtual spaces.

Your work may imagine a future city, a digital forest, a parallel universe, or an emotion yet to be defined.

Each submission becomes an entry point into a new dimension of artistic possibility.

Organizer

The competition is hosted by the North America Education Alliance and co-organized by the Toronto Secondary School of Art (TSSA).

As an international non-profit educational organization, the North America Education Alliance is committed to advancing youth arts education and cross-cultural exchange.

All registration fees and supporting funds are allocated in accordance with non-profit standards to support competition operations, exhibitions, scholarships, mentorship programs, and student development initiatives.
