Young people are being invited to create a special piece of art inspired by all things British, from the Clap for Carers, to their teacher for being cool, to their Mum for just being their Mum, to our diverse \u2018national spirit\u2019. Winners from three age categories will see their artwork exhibited in late Spring at London\u2019s The O2 and win the chance of a once-in-a lifetime VIP trip to the capital for them and their families. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
