JOIN US FOR THE OPENING:

MEET THE STUDENTS FROM ACROSS CANADA FROM 5 - 7PM, THURSDAY, AUGUST 28TH

The 2025 Competition has received the greatest number of candidates ever. This year we have expanded to introduce two categories: Jewellery Focus and Sculptural Focus. Five Finalists compete for each category.

The winners will be announced at 6pm during our opening event, August 28th.

Selection for this exhibition is based on technical excellence, ingenuity, and strength of creative vision. One-of-a-kind, production prototypes, jewellery and objects are considered equally. Students of any year from a Canadian diploma-granting educational institution are invited to apply.
