Children from numerous private schools in Kuwait from the ages of 12 to 18 years old were allowed to participate and the theme for this year was Kuwait's Glorious Occasions.
For the second year in a row, Al Tijari customers of My First Account were also allowed to participate and compete with the private schools and centers for children with special needs. This unique competition has been going on successfully for the past sixteen years since it encourages students from different schools in Kuwait to develop their artistic talent and creativity.

A selection committee chose 15 of the best paintings, including two from the special needs schools and five from the participants who have the My First Account out of more than 250 paintings. The 5 winners from Al Tijari received a cash price that was deposited in their existing My First Account and a free ticket to watch the latest IMAX movie at The Scientific Center while the rest received new My First Account or @Tijari accounts with a cash deposit. All of the paintings are available to be bought and all the proceeds go to the World Childhood Foundation.
