At Crestar Learning Centre (CLC), we believe that art competitions are a fantastic opportunity for our students to shine, gain recognition, and win amazing prizes! We always encourage our young artists to dive into these experiences to broaden their horizons and celebrate their successes.

We’re excited to share that in March and April of this year, our talented Art students participated in the 2024 “Magic Eyes” China (Hangzhou) International Children’s Comics Contest and the 6th Singapore International Original Comics Competition (SGIOCC).
