    Each year, Lions clubs around the world proudly sponsor the Lions International Peace Poster Contest in local schools and youth groups. This Contest encourages young people worldwide to artistically express their visions of peace. Each year’s contest consists of an original theme incorporating peace. Participants use a variety of mediums, including charcoal, crayon, pencil and paint, to express the theme. The works created are unique and express the young artists’ life experiences and culture. The theme of the 2010-11 Peace Poster Contest is "Vision of Peace". Students, ages 11, 12 or 13 on November 15, are eligible to participate. One international grand prize winner will receive a trip to a special award ceremony with the sponsoring club president and two family members at Lions Day with the United Nations. During the ceremony, the winning artist will receive an engraved plaque and a cash prize.
