“This initiative was conceptualised following the decision by Sikh Foundation International to make an e-copy of their beautiful publication “Sikh Art from the Kapany Collection” available as a free download, earlier this year. 

During a worldwide lockdown as a result of the pandemic, the free access provided the opportunity for the Art Competition.

My sincere thanks to the individuals and teams at Karamsar Panjabi School, The Central Gurdwara Khalsa Jatha British Isles and South London Sikh Youth who worked with us to promote the competition.  The range of entries have made for a wonderful and uplifting viewing  experience, and the feedback from our judges I hope provides inspiration to the young entrants.  

I would also like to thank companies who have such wonderful products which we have purchased as prizes, and to the parents and families who provided the time and support to their children to participate in this ‘little’ initiative.”
