The focus of the Cheltenham Illustration Awards has always been one of narrative. Visual storytelling, whether sequential or single image, gives scope to the imagination and opens up possibilities beyond the present moment. This year the theme is: The Story of a Better Tomorrow.

The Emerging and Established category is open to any newly practising illustrators who are wishing to gain exposure and to those who are more established. Entries are limited to 5 per person. There is no entry fee. Eligibility: Open worldwide to all students, emerging and established illustrators. Entrants must be 18+. Prize: The selected work will be showcased at the Museum in the Park, Stroud, UK, other venues such as the London Book Fair, and published in the 2021 Cheltenham Illustration Awards Annual, which will be distributed to educators and publishers, internationally.
