Canberra Glassworks is presenting the Kids’ Design Competition in partnership with Canberra Museum and Gallery as part of the DESIGN Canberra Festival 2 – 20 November 2022 and the International Year of Glass.

Be inspired by the magical and beguiling world of Tom Moore’s Fantastic Creatures in the exhibition JamFactory ICON Tom Moore: Abundant Wonder. Who is your Fantastic Creature? What magical and unusual world do they live in? What kind of magic do they possess? What makes your creature fantastic?

Check out the video accompanying Tom Moore’s exhibition at CMAG and remember to make sure that your design can be made in glass! Watch Tom Moore: Abundant Wonder video.

The winner of the design competition will be announced on Friday 21 October on social media and the winning designer will be contacted via email. The winning design will be made out of glass by artist extraordinaire, Tom Moore, in a public demonstration and displayed in our foyer before the design winner takes their glass creature home!

Entry forms with further details on how to participate in the competition are available at Canberra Glassworks and in the CMAG ReaderSpace. Submit your designs by 4pm, Sunday 16 October 2022.

Share your designs in the making #kidsdesigncompetition @canberraglassworks @canberramuseumandgallery
