Japan Day is inviting all visual artists to submit their work to Japan Day Art Contest to select our Japan Day Official Artist 2017.

We are accepting submissions that incorporate the three themes of New York, Japan, and Central Park. The chosen artwork will become the official image of Japan Day @ Central Park 2017, and will be used for the official poster, programs, flyer, and T-shirts. Several artists will receive honorable mentions.

Japan Day Official Artists will receive a pair of round trip tickets to Japan provided by ANA and all the winning artworks will be displayed at an exhibition space on the 18th floor of the Consulate General of Japan in New York.

All winners will be announced in late March/early April 2017. The awards will be presented on the day of event in May 2017.
