In association with the Saudi Postal Corporation (SPL), Saudi Arabia's Visual Arts Commission has just launched a new art competition, Subol Al-Fann. Translated as "Ways of Art," this is a creative contest where participants can compete in either artwork tracks, which is either digital drawing or plastic drawing. Currently, the contest is open in both Arabic and English via a dedicated digital platform.
Along with the announcement, the Visual Arts Commission took the opportunity to share the terms and conditions with the public. As stated, Saudi Arabians from ages 18 and up may apply with a valid ID, but they may only submit one art piece that meets the artistic criteria. In addition, the art piece must also follow the main theme, which is the transformation in sending and receiving postal services, and the future of sending and receiving parcels.
