 Young artists are invited to spread some festive cheer by entering this year’s competition to design an exclusive Christmas card cover which may feature on cards sent out by the Mayor and Chief Executive. 

Entrants are encouraged to be inventive and draw, paint, or collage a personal card with a seasonal, borough-led theme. 

Lutfur Rahman, Executive Mayor of Tower Hamlets, said: “Our popular Christmas competition gives primary school children an opportunity to display their creativity and design a unique Tower Hamlets themed card cover that will help spread some festive cheer.  Good luck to all the entrants!”
