Imagine using your artistic talents to shine a light on forgotten heroes who changed the world. The ArtEffect Competition offers students in grades 6-12 the opportunity to do just that. As a prestigious, juried visual arts contest, it empowers young artists to create meaningful projects that highlight the lives and legacies of Unsung Heroes — individuals who made a lasting impact on history but may not have received the recognition they deserve.

In recognition of their exceptional work, participants in the competition have the chance to win over $25,000 in awards and scholarships. Since its launch in 2016, the ArtEffect Competition has drawn thousands of students from around the world, each using their creativity to amplify voices that history has often overlooked.

If you’re passionate about art and storytelling, this competition is your opportunity to leave a mark — just like the Unsung Heroes you’ll portray.
