GLOBAL INDIA ARTS OLYMPIAD

The Arts Olympiad is a global art competition for children and young people, organized by the Global India Math Olympiad (GIAO). This event aims to foster creativity, imagination, and empathy among students by encouraging them to express themselves through visual art. It provides young artists an international platform to showcase their talents and promotes art as a tool for global understanding and peace.

The Arts Olympiad usually involves two phases:

1. National Competitions: Students from different countries create and submit artworks based on a specific theme (often related to global issues, environmental challenges, or cultural topics). Local juries evaluate these works, and the winners proceed to the next stage.
2. World Children’s Festival: Selected young artists from around the world gather in Washington, D.C. for the final stage, where their works are displayed. The festival includes art exhibitions, workshops, and cultural exchange programs.

One of the key goals of the Arts Olympiad is to engage students in a dialogue that connects creativity with positive social change. Themes often revolve around global citizenship, environmental sustainability, and promoting peace through artistic expression.
