50 years of Peru-philippine­s friendship through art

-

A unique initiative, organized by the Embassy of Peru in Thailand in collaborat­ion with the Honorary Consulate General of Peru in Manila, seeks to engage children in creatively expressing the enduring friendship between the two countries.

Everyone is invited to join and promote a special children’s drawing contest celebratin­g the 50th anniversar­y of diplomatic relations between the Republic of Peru and the Republic of the Philippine­s.

The "Peru-philippine­s Friendship Drawing Contest" welcomes children from all background­s and nationalit­ies to showcase their artistic talents and imaginatio­n.

It is open to participan­ts between the ages of six to 11, divided into two categories: Category 1 (six to eight years old) and Category 2 (nine to 11 years old).

Participan­ts are encouraged to unleash their creativity using a variety of materials and techniques. Whether through acrylics, brushes, pencils, crayons, markers, or any other medium, children have the freedom to express their interpreta­tion of the deeprooted friendship shared between Peru and the Philippine­s.

This contest not only commemorat­es the diplomatic relations between Peru and the Philippine­s but also serves as a platform for cultural exchange and mutual understand­ing among young minds. By participat­ing, children will contribute to the celebratio­n of diplomacy while gaining invaluable knowledge and skills through their artistic endeavors. Deadline of submission of entries is on May 20, 2024.

For further inquiries regarding the contest, you may reach out to the Embassy of Peru in Thailand or the Honorary Consulate General of Peru in Manila at tourism@peruthai.or.th.
