2021 ART CONTEST WINNERS
Curated by Covid is pleased to announce the 2021 Art Contest winners. Our primary goal was to compile COVID-19 inspired art pieces and quarantine art projects and put them on display in a digital art gallery. Thank you to everyone who contributed to our virtual time capsule, we hope this project was a source of motivation and inspiration for a steady return to normal.
