Nippon Paint (India) Private Limited (Decorative Division), Asia Pacific’s leading paint manufacturer in collaboration with Rotary Club of Madras East (RCME), announced the launch of an art competition for aspiring child painters. The contest invites school children from across India to participate. The contest is categorized into three age groups: Less than 8 years, 8 – 12 years and 12 – 16 years. The winning entries will be displayed on prominent walls as part of the Greater Chennai project. In addition, they will bag cash prizes as well.
