Dear Artists,
We are thrilled to announce the inaugural Laudamus Award, an opportunity for today’s creative minds to express their faith, devotion, and spirituality through the powerful medium of art. Whether you’re a seasoned professional or an enthusiastic amateur, we invite you to share your unique vision of Christian themes, stories, symbols or saints.
We encourage artists to explore the depth and breadth of Christian faith, drawing inspiration from sacred texts, historical events, saints, and the profound teachings of Christianity. Your artwork can embrace a variety of styles and mediums – from traditional paintings and sculptures to digital art and mixed media. This award not only celebrates artistic proficiency but also acknowledges the profound connection between art and worship. Through a careful selection process, the Laudamus Award recognises the ability of artists to inspire, uplift, and invite contemplation on the divine.
