2017 Poster Competition

Founded in 2001, the Guringai Festival aims to raise awareness of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people living in the Northern Sydney region.  The Guringai Festival Committee invites primary school students to create an artwork that reflects these themes and the nature of the Festival. There is an opportunity for your artwork to then be chosen as the cover of the Guringai Festival program and poster image for 2017.
