Young Illustrators Challenge Registration; Reception - May 10th @ 5pm

The Young Illustrators Challenge was developed 14 years ago to inspire the talented young artists of Long Island. Every year students from all over the island submit work to be judged by our incredible panel of jurors. Art in education is to be celebrated and we are so pleased to see so many L.I. students & teachers celebrating it too!

The YIC is a Long Island wide illustration competition for students in grades K - 12. Students who enter must create work inspired by the 2025 theme, The Great Outdoors! A panel of jurors made up of professional artists, illustrators and/or curators will award students 1st, 2nd, 3rd or honorable mention in grade categories; K-2, 3-5, 6-8 & 9-12. Sixteen total awards will be given the day of our awards reception.

ALL ARTWORK ENTERED MUST BE DELIVERED TO GALLERY NORTH NO LATER THEN MAY 3rd, 5 PM.
