The Golden Vale Fresh Milk Clare Community Games County Art competition took place in CBS School, Ennis on 13 Feb 2010. As usual there was a large number of talented children from the County competing to win a place in the May National Finals in Athlone.

The Art competition caters for Boys and Girls in the Under 8, 10, 12, 14 and 16 age groups.

Competitors must be under the age limit on 31st July in the year of competition.

Each competitor submits one piece of artwork (painting, drawing, colouring, collage), generally on an A3 size sheet. Competitors are expected to provide all their own materials.

Each entry must have a Community Games theme, i.e. depict activities relevant to Community Games. At County and National competitions, children are given a choice of 4 themes on commencement of the competition.

Participants have up to 3 hours to complete their artwork.

Visual aids (i.e. photos, pictures) are not permitted during the competition.

Full Art rules are available from the Community Games website.

First and second place in each category from each Area go through to the County finals, which usually take place in Ennis early in the year (Jan, Feb).

The winner of each category goes through to represent Clare in the National finals, at the first weekend, usually towards the end of May.
