Celebrate Swindon: Competition Now Open!

24 Jul 2025
Museum & Art Swindon - Celebrate Swindon: Competition Now Open!

We’re thrilled to launch Celebrate Swindon – a brand-new creative competition in partnership with the Mayor of Swindon and Swindon Borough Council, designed to showcase creativity across our community.

This is your chance to tell the story of Swindon through art and to be part of a public celebration of the people, places and moments that make our town special.

 

The Brief:

Create an artwork that celebrates what Swindon means to you.  Why is Swindon important to you?  What makes you proud of the town?   Is there a place, a person, or a group of people that mean a lot to you?  

We will accept work in any medium: digital, print, collage, drawing, paint, photography or 3D work, no bigger than A4, created either portrait or landscape.

 

The Prize:

We’ll select one winner from each category. Their artwork will be displayed in the Activity Space at Museum & Art Swindon.

Each winner will also receive a Swindon-themed voucher prize, tailored to their age group – perfect for enjoying everything the town has to offer!

 

Categories:

The age group categories are the following:

  • Individual entries from 0-7 years, 8-11 years, 12 -18 years, over 18 years
  • Group entry from families

 

How to enter:

To enter:

  • Fill in an entry form and take your artwork to Museum & Art Swindon, Civic Offices, Euclid Street, Swindon SN1 2JH. Entry forms will also be available at the Museum.
  • Post your entry form in the competition box and hand your artwork to the Museum staff. Make sure your name and the date are on the back of your artwork.
  • The terms and conditions for the competition can be found here.

 

The closing date is 4.30pm on Saturday 30 August 2025.  Good luck!
