You now have until Monday 13 May to submit your artwork to the MS Plus Virtual Art Show for 2024.
For World MS Day 2024, MS Plus is exploring ‘My MS Diagnosis: It Takes a Village’ — the importance of finding your support network, or ‘village’ after an MS diagnosis — and all the forms a village can take. It’s a celebration of the people, systems and services that support people with MS.
All artwork submitted in 2024 should explore the theme ‘It Takes A Village’: expressing what having an MS village means to you.
People living with MS, their carers and those with other progressive neurological conditions are eligible to enter. All types of artworks can be submitted, including paintings, illustrations, sculptures, craft, digital artwork and photography.
Each year one artists will receive the prestigious Barry Allen Art Award. The late Barry Allen was a man who loved painting and received great comfort from his interest in art and music. We also have a dedicated award for carers.
