Yes to Peace (Y2P) art competition

We've launched an exciting new art competition in London for 11-18 year olds. It's your chance to use art to show that talented young Londoners oppose gun, gang and knife crime.

Why should I get involved?

  • Young people are too often portrayed negatively in the media.
  • This competition challenges these stereotypes by celebrating the talents of young people through art.
  • We want to raise awareness of the effects of crime on young people and help improve these services for young people by raising funds for new specialist training.
  • With your help, we want to recruit 500 volunteers to support young victims and witnesses of crime.

How do I get involved?

  • Register your interest in taking part
  • Create a photo or two dimensional (2D) piece of artwork depicting your interpretation of the theme of peace.
  • Send us your finished photo or piece of 2D artwork by 7pm on Friday 8 October to the email or postal address below.
