London's not-for-profit visual arts competition, ART COMP, is now open for its 2025 exhibition in London.
The immersive exhibition, located at 100 Kellogg Lane, is open daily until Sept. 7 from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.
'ART COMP is more than a competition — it's a platform to ignite imagination, spark dialogue and inspire connection through art,' said Emily Barnes, an organizer of ART COMP in a statement.
The opening ceremonies revealed work from 100 emerging and professional artists.
'We invite the public to explore the exhibit, celebrate local and national talent, and participate in shaping the future of Canadian art,' said Barnes.
Visitors are encouraged to vote online on artwork for the People's Choice Award. This award includes a first-place prize of $50,000, second-place prize of $30,000 and third-place prize of $20,000.
A panel of judges determines the Panel's Choice winner, who will receive a prize of $100,000.
Voting remains open until Sept. 7, and the winner will be announced during a closing ceremony on Sept. 19.
