Paintpals International Contest 2007

International Paint Pal Contest Winners

In association with International PaintPals, Aga Khan Foundation U.S.A. (AKF USA) organized a painting contest in 2007 and invited young people aged 6 to 18 to create artwork that reflects the ideals and spirit of humanity of the Olympics. The winning entries will be exhibited by International PaintPals at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. The participants’ paintings express their ideas of peace, goodwill, pluralism and friendship among nations. International PaintPals has acquired entries from young people worldwide to communicate their personal views and share cultures and friendship through the universal language of art (www.paintpals.org).
