Rail Museum to conduct drawing and painting competition for school children on June 4

Mysore/Mysuru: Mysuru Rail Museum will be conducting a drawing and painting competition on June 4 for school children as part of this year’s World Environment Day to create awareness about the dangers of plastics on our fragile ecosystem.

The competition is open to students from 5 to 18 years and will be held in the Mysuru Rail Museum premises on June 4 between 10.30 am and 12.30 pm. There is no entry fee.

This event will coincide with the World Environment Day, observed each year on June 5. The focus this year will be on solutions to plastic pollution under the campaign #BeatPlastic Pollution.

The theme for the drawing and painting competition is #BeatPlastic Pollution as this ubiquitous material poses a serious threat to humanity and all its species, and therefore, needs replacement, and the need to act fast.

The best three works selected in each group will be given prizes on June 5 at 4.30 pm besides consolation prizes in each group. Certificate of Participation will be given to all.

Writing materials like drawing sheets, crayons, pencils, erasers, etc., will be provided by the organisers to the participants free of cost. The students are free to use their own writing materials (except drawing sheet).
