A TOTAL of 750 children participated in the just-concluded 14th Edition of Toyota Dream Car Art Contest which held in Abuja, Port Harcourt and Lagos, from February 5 to 12, 2021.
The contest produced nine winners, one from Port Harcourt, two from Abuja and six from Lagos, with the children challenging Toyota to produce their dream car in the future.
Toyota Nigeria Limited rewarded the winners with brand new laptops each. Toyota Dream Car Art Contest is an annual CSR initiative of Toyota Motor Corporation Japan to develop the innate artistic talent in children and to cultivate an enduring relationship with them and by extension, their parents.

If you are a young artist, Toyota wants to see your vision of tomorrow’s transportation. The 2021 Toyota Dream Car USA Art Contest is open for hand-drawn submissions now through Jan. 31.
The contest asks artists ages 4-15 to draw what they think the car of the future will look like. Drawings have to be between 8.5 by 11 inches (or a standard piece of printer paper) and 15.7 by 21.7 inches. Once you draw a car and its background, Toyota asks for a written description for the judges.
While you might want to break out your most impressive art supplies, Toyota asks that you stick to watercolor paint, markers, colored pencils, or crayons. And no cheating, either, by submitting a picture that’s won an award before or been published.
