This year's exhibition was themed 'Travel', with elementary, middle, and high school students submitting their works. Participants who passed the first round of judging underwent the final evaluation at an on-site drawing competition held on April 19. The participants completed their works on-site using pencils, colored pencils, and crayons, ensuring a fair assessment process.

Sixty outstanding works will be exhibited at the Gwangju Museum of Art from May 1 to 11, and at the Gwangju Shinsegae Gallery from May 15 to 27.

CEO Lee Donghun stated, "Thanks to the enthusiastic participation of the students, the competition concluded successfully," and added, "We will continue to engage in various activities together with the local community."
