Kilmallock Credit Union is inviting artists of all ages to get creative as the 2026 Credit Union Art Competition officially opens for entries. This year’s theme, “World of Colour,” encourages participants to use art to explore the colours, experiences and perspectives that make our world unique.
Whether inspired by nature, culture or imagination, entrants are encouraged to interpret the theme in their own way. From bright, bold landscapes to subtle moments of everyday beauty, “World of Colour” offers endless opportunities for artists to tell their stories through creativity.
