Protecting the environment and imagining a better world are prominent themes among many of the award-winning car designs in the Toyota Dream Car USA Art Contest. The free contest opens this year in the United States on November 16, 2020, accepting artwork submissions from U.S. youth, ages 4-15, until January 31, 2021. Details (official rules, artwork guidelines, entry form, teacher lesson plan) are available at www.ToyotaDreamCarUSA.com.
eam career is to be a designer someday.
Each year, the Toyota Dream Car USA Art Contest sends out a call for artwork submissions, which are received and entered into one of three categories – Category 1 (4-7 years); Category 2 (8-11 years); and Category 3 (12-15 years). Judging takes place within each age group to choose the best in terms of uniqueness of concept, artistry of concept, and execution of concept.
Toyota Motor Corporation in Japan held the first worldwide contest in 2004. Nearly 90 countries now host their own national contests under the same rules but with varying artwork submission periods.
