The annual Young East Anglian Artists competition is back and will be continuing to support the work of Cancer Research UK.

 

The competition, which is open to children up to the age of 11, is being hosted at Woodbridge School Prep.

Organisers are inviting participants to create artwork reflecting this year's theme of 'Connections'.

The theme will look at ties that bind people such as connections within communities, families and shared humanity.

Entries, submitted with a minimum donation of £2.50 towards Cancer Research UK, will be accepted until May 17.

Judges will then select the winners with the best work exhibited in the John Gibbins Gallery from June 21 to 23.
