Toyota Korea Hosts 2022 Toyota Dream Car Art Contest

For Children and Adolescents Aged 8 to Under 15 Years

[Asia Economy Reporter Ki-min Lee] Toyota Korea announced on the 10th that it is holding the '2022 Toyota Dream Car Art Contest' and will accept submissions until January 28 next year.

Now in its 15th year, the Toyota Dream Car Art Contest is an art competition hosted annually by Toyota Motor Corporation for children and youth worldwide under the theme 'Your Dream Car.' Last year, for the first time, a Korean child, 2nd grader Lee Jeyul from Sambong Elementary School in Anyang, won the grand prize in the global finals.

Children and youth under the age of 15 residing in Korea are eligible to participate. The contest is divided into three categories: under 8 years old, 8 to 11 years old, and 12 to 15 years old. Starting this year, digital works including computer graphics (CG) are also accepted in addition to hand-drawn artworks.

After judging, a total of 59 works will be selected as winners in the domestic contest. Among them, gold, silver, and bronze prizes will be awarded in each category, and the nine selected winners will receive prizes and qualify to advance to the global finals, the World Contest.

The number of winners in this year's World Contest has been expanded to 26, and the global grand prize winner will receive a separate cash prize and awards.

Kang Daehwan, Managing Director of Toyota Korea, said, "We are very excited to see what the dream cars drawn through the unbiased eyes of children will look like," adding, "We hope Korean children will freely express a future full of hope through the Dream Car Art Contest held with children around the world."
