“Earth’s Guardian” by Ethan Byeon, age 11
The Toyota Dream Car Art Contest is starting its 5th year of participation in the United States (it started worldwide in 2004). The free contest is designed to inspire creativity in youth and encourage an interest in design and the automotive industry. Now through Monday, February 1, 2016, U.S. youth, ages 4-15, can submit their hand-drawn artworks featuring unique concepts of their “Dream Car.” Applicants are sorted into three age categories (4-7 years; 8-11 years; 12-15 years). Judging is based on three criteria: execution of concept; uniqueness; and artistry. For details, official rules, and entry forms, visit www.TFSintheCommunity.com/DreamCar.
