Young artists who submitted entries to this year’s Texaco Children’s Art Competition are currently having their works evaluated as the judging process gets underway.

Pictured is preliminary adjudicator, Tara Butler-Frey admiring two of the entries received from Drogheda this year – a work entitled ‘7 Years Ago’ (left) by a pupil from the Arthouse, and another entitled ‘Zesty Harmony’ by a pupil from Our Lady’s College.

Winners in six age categories plus one category reserved exclusively for young artists with additional needs, will be announced in mid-April.

Now celebrating its 71st year, the Texaco Children’s Art Competition is the longest-running art sponsorship in Ireland. First held in 1955, it is hosted by Valero Energy (Ireland) Limited – the company that markets fuel in Ireland under the Texaco brand.
