Dear Friends:

We wholeheartedly invite all children from any art groups, schools and organizations internationally to attend our 19th Annual Canada International Children’s Art Festival (CICAF) held at Toronto City Hall. This Festival will be running from August 2021. 

Since it was founded in 2002, the Canada International Children’s Art Festival has become one of the world’s largest children’s art festivals. More than 20,000 children have participated in various competitions at our festival. Participants stem from all parts of the world including Canada, China and Southeast Asia, the U.S. and some European countries. Artwork from different countries, cultures and styles come and mesh together here, like a beautiful symphony.

All three levels of the Canadian government have given great support to this event, and the venue of the exhibition is none other than the Toronto City Hall.

This year’s festival’s categories have expanded from fine arts, music and speech to literature, dance, film, children’s drama, and technology, etc. We hope this expansion in categories will encourage more children to participate. This year’s festival also includes multicultural communities including Indigenous children, and children with mental and physical challages, so that they have the same positive opportunities to express their artistic creations and passions.

We look forward to seeing you all together in Toronto, and furthermore,

We wish you all a happy and healthy life.
