Our goal to encourage, opportunity and promote the cross-cultural art experience among young students through an annual student art competition. Encouraging talented young artiest to find creative voice of their own.

The association holds an annual Students' Art Competition that, children and young adults (K-12) of Washington , Oregon and western Canada are invited to this event their creativity in visual art.

The event will be held at the Seattle Center in Seattle on Saturday, May 10, 2008, 12:30 pm - 6:00 pm .

KACAPN is inviting everyone to come and participate in this sharing of art and life.

The contest is fundamentally an activity to create a space for students to get together in expressing their ideas through art. Although it is a competition, students may also use it as a way to express the beauty they see in the world.

Many awards won by students from the competition went onto various prestigious art schools like RISD, Parsons School of Design, Pratt Institute of Art, Chicago Art Institute, Pasadena Art Center and Coopers Union. We hope students in your community will join this wonderful experience in meeting other young artists from all over the Pacific Northwest .

The primary benefit of such a competition goes beyond a college major in the field of art. Through this personally engaging creative activity, students have the opportunity to deepen their awareness of beauty and self through a medium that fosters individuality and creative artistry.

This project sponsored by the Korean-American Art & Cultural Association of Pacific Northwest, encourages and supports all artists in the region in their pursuit to enrich both personal and community life.

The Pacific Northwest Students' Art Competition needs support from your family, our community and our youth to grow rich in quality of life and community for our future generations.
