We had over 200 participants and all the entries were extremely creative. Art Contest judge, Sheena Vaidyanathan, said she had a very tough time picking the winning entry because all the entries were so high quality.

And now, inspired by the success of the Art Contest, ICC is holding an Online Story contest for kids. Just submit a story to go with the winning Art Contest entries. For more Click Here.
