Art competition

The project will host biannual art competitions over two years (from September 2025 to September 2027) as part of the PrEP Empowerment Project. Each competition cycle will result in the selection of three winning artworks, which will be featured as rotating title pages on the project’s website.

Total Competitions: 5 (one every 6 months).
Total Artworks Selected: 15 (3 per cycle).
Prize: Each selected artist will receive a $100 gift card.

This is a SSAF funded initiative

The competition is open to all artists.
In each cycle, one of the three winning spots will be reserved for a student artist, funded by the Student Services and Amenities Fee (SSAF).
