‘Brendan Harron’ INTO Art Competition

Creating Experiencing Connecting
2025

The Brendan Harron INTO Art Competition is open to all active members in the North.

An overall winner will be identified by a panel of judges, and if appropriate, a highly commended piece also.

To help with ease of participation there are two simple steps to entering:

1. EMAIL a clear digital image of your submission/s to infoni@into.ie remembering to include your name, TR number and the title of your work.

2. SUBMIT your application form online HERE

Your photographs and form must be with INTO Northern Office by 5pm, Friday, 30th May, 2025

Members may submit up to a maximum of three original paintings, these need not be framed but if chosen as the winning piece will become part of the growing Northern Office art collection.

Members have found the choice of a theme to be helpful when creating or choosing a painting to enter and we hope those listed are as varied and engaging as possible (further suggestions welcome):

  • People
  • Animals
  • Landscape
  • Seascape
  • Cityscape
  • Abstract
  • Still Life

While this Art Competition produces a winner each year, we hope members find the opportunity to bring an idea to completion, to share their work with fellow members and support the continued growth of an entirely INTO member produced display of art to be an appealing and inspiring one.

The Brendan Harron INTO Art Competition is as much about creating art works as it is about experiencing art. Through this competition INTO hopes to offer members another way to connect with each other and to a part of their creative lives that may get side-lined in a busy life. Maybe during the coming months work on your entry for this year’s competition could provide a welcome element to work-life balance. We hope as well as INTO enjoying the artistic work of its members, that importantly, you enjoy the benefits that come with creating pieces of art.

If you have not entered before we hope the diversity of past years will encourage you to do so this year!
