VISION

We believe that investing in people is a way to make this world a better place and we believe in the power of art to express imaginative ideas, create positive change, and bring joy to our lives. 

​

This is the reason why, We promoted art competition that aims to expand opportunities for artists at home and abroad by stimulating opportunities, challenges, and motivation for young artists engaged in art.

THEME

From the past to the present, the battle of heroes to protect human life, dignity, and freedom continued.

​

The 5th SMYH Foundation Awards hosts hero-themed art contests to not forget their noble sacrifice spirit.
