Children's Painting Competition
We have teamed up with the Herts and Essex Observer to launch an Olympics themed art competition.
The competition is open to all children in Bishop's Stortford, Stansted, Dunmow and surrounding areas and will be judged in four age categories (5-8, 9-11, 12-15 and 16-18).
Entries will be assessed on initial impact, artistic impression, interpretation of the subject and use of chosen medium and will be judged by the editor of the Herts & Essex Observer and a local professional artist and tutor.
