Entries for the 2025 Welight Art Student Exhibition are now open. 

​

Held every year, we invite all our young Welight artists between ages 5 - 18 to sumbit artworks in a variety of media including: Painting, Drawing, Collage, Print, Picture Books and art craft.  All works produced after 1st Jan 2025 will be eligible for entry.

​

Entry forms MUST be submitted online. You need to upload an image, and the original artworks need to be delivered to the Welight Art Space, no later than Sat 20 December 2025, AFTER the online form has been completed. Each student can only submit one artwork so choose wisely. 

​

The criteria for this year's selection will be divided into two main categories: one focusing on realism, emphasizing technical skill and the overall completeness of the visuals, while the other leans towards creativity, emphasizing a child's distinctive personality and the ability to express emotions and stories through visuals.

​

Due to the limited space, only the best 100 ARTWORKS will be selected as finalists and exhibited in a major Exhibition at Welight Art Space from 24 Jan to 22 Feb 2026. The winner will be announced at the official opening on 24 Jan 2026.

​

The 2025 judges are Richard Chao. You can read Richard Chao's profile here.

​

Awards will be presented by Willoughby Mayor - Tanya Taylor who will also be providing a speech. 

​

Entries close 5pm, Saturday 20 December 2025. Late entries will not be accepted.
