Lahore Art Competition

Pak Oman Investment Company’s internal Corporate Social Responsibility unit ‘Friends of Life’ recently organized an Inter-School Art Competition for young children from over 25 schools in Lahore to resounding success. Sponsored jointly by Admore Gas Private Limited and Allied Engineering Private Limited, this event was organized in line with ‘Friends of Life’s mission to encourage social interaction and healthy competition amongst children and youth.

An official prize-giving ceremony was held at a local hotel and winners in various categories as well as their respective parents and school principals were invited to attend. This ceremony was covered by major news channels including Hum TV and Aaj TV. Eminent artist and Friday Times cartoonist Mr.Sabir Nazar, who at an earlier date had selected the winning entries, presided over the event along with premier singer and performer Mr. Abrar-ul-Haq and prominent educationist Mr. Nayyar Ali Shah.

Addressing the gathering the panel of guests commended Pak Oman’s initiative in establishing an independent committee like ‘Friends-of-Life’ and moreover expressed great appreciation for the provision of creative opportunities for children. This, they stated would go a long way in instilling in them a sense of responsibility for the society that they are a part of.

Children between the ages of 8 and 12 from different schools submitted entries based on topics like ‘Me, Myself and I’, ‘The World We Live In’ and ‘My Favorite Person’. There were over 300 entries, with Convent of Jesus and Mary and City School taking first prize in each of two categories.

The winners were awarded special prizes, while all other contributing schools as well as children were given plaques and certificates.
This was the second event in a series of such events planned by ‘Friends of Life’; a similar competition, presided over by well know TV personality, artist and thespian Mr. Anwar Maqsood was held earlier this year in Karachi.
