Securities firm Morgan & Co has partnered the National Arts Gallery of Zimbabwe to bring the second edition of a national art competition targeting artists between 18 to 30 years of age.
Running under the theme “Smiling Through Adversity”, the competition will see artistes who specialise in painting, drawing and graphics walking away with huge prizes. In a statement, Morgan & Co said a major event to announce the winners will be held on November 21.
Last year’s event which was themed – Can Your Paintings Roar – was won by Pride Mapfumo while special recognition went to Given Thomu who has managed to pursue his arts dream despite physical limitations.
“Pride won an all expenses trip to Cape Town to tour the town’s art galleries and attended the Annual Art Conference,” Morgan & Co said in a statement.
Morgan & Co also called on artists to continue submitting their artworks depicting the theme. أونو
