How would you like to see your art displayed on the walls of an actual museum?
Unleash Your Creativity and Join a Worldwide Celebration of Art!
Explore the magic of trees and the connections they inspire through art. Our Under the Tree art competition invites artists of all ages and backgrounds to share their unique visions of “people under a tree.”
Trees have long been symbols of shelter, wisdom, and connection. This competition is a festive way to celebrate these timeless ideas while fostering creativity and community worldwide.
Whether you're an aspiring artist, a seasoned creator, or a budding talent from a school classroom, this is your chance to shine and have your artwork featured on the walls of a special exhibition in the Silk Road Virtual Museum.
Below are excerpts of art from the Taiyuan Tomb Exhibition.
