Lahore: Beaconhouse organised an art competition featuring the work of young artists from 120 schools on February 17, 2017. Senior school students from Beaconhouse Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad, Peshawar, Sialkot, Hyderabad and Multan, as well as students from The City School, LACAS, Bloomfield Hall, LGS, Dar-e-Arqam, DHA School System, Ibn-e Sina and TNS Beaconhouse participated in the competition.
The contest was hosted by the Beaconhouse Central Region and held at Beaconhouse-Newlands in Lahore. It had two categories: an exhibition of pre-submitted artwork entitled “Young Canvas” and a live art competition. The total number of submissions received this year was more than 600. The event was judged by renowned artists Ms Salima Hashmi, Ms Aroosa Rana and Mr Ghulam Mohammad (GM).
The event celebrates students’ creativity and artistic expression and provides a wider forum in which to showcase their talent. Beaconhouse recognises the positive impact such activities have on learning beyond the classroom and ensures that its students are actively involved in creative expression.
