The search to find the young artists who will excel in this year’s Texaco Children’s Art Competition has begun. Last year five students from Co. Wexford won prizes in the event which is now in its 66th year and widely acknowledged as the longest running arts sponsorship in Ireland.

The closing date for entries is Friday, February 28th with judging to take place in March.

Winners will be announced in mid-April, with prize-giving to follow in May.
