The exhibition is open to children, teenagers, young artists, and art enthusiasts worldwide. Both individual applicants and students from partner art studios are welcome to apply.

The theme of the 2026 exhibition is “One World · One Future.”
Artists are encouraged to explore ideas related to the environment, peace, cultural diversity, sustainability, humanity, imagination, and the future of our world.

We accept a wide range of visual art forms, including painting, drawing, mixed media, illustration, watercolor, acrylic, oil painting, collage, and other creative visual expressions.

Selected artworks will be exhibited at the Carrousel du Louvre in Paris, France, one of the Louvre’s major exhibition spaces located in the heart of the museum complex.

Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis until all exhibition spaces are filled. Early submission is strongly recommended due to limited exhibition capacity.

Selected participants will receive an official exhibition invitation and submission instructions. Artists will then complete the exhibition fee payment and mail their original artwork to the organizing center for professional preparation and exhibition installation in Paris.

The exhibition fee helps cover professional framing, exhibition installation, artwork handling, venue preparation, administration, and on-site exhibition services at the Louvre exhibition venue.

In most cases, artworks will not be returned after the exhibition. We encourage participants to submit artworks they are proud to share internationally but do not necessarily need to keep permanently.
