On the said date, Global Art Philippines will simultaneously hold a competition among students from local branches— the winners of which will advance to the International Level where they vie for a slot among the best artists of Global Art worldwide.
The competition is aimed at encouraging kids to apply everything what they have been learning in Global Art classes independently; boost their confidence; gain valuable experience and learn from other participants and most importantly, through the theme, “Heal The World,” learn how to take care of the environment, their health, fellow citizens, their country and its resources.
