Biblical Art Competition for Half Term: “Divine Designs: Between the Covers”

Looking for a creative project for children and young people over the half-term break? This exciting national competition could be just the inspiration they need.


Divine Designs: Between the Covers

Celebrating the 73 books of the Bible


From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible tells the greatest story ever shared—full of drama, beauty, challenge, and hope. This competition invites artists of all ages to bring those stories to life in a fresh and creative way.


๐ŸŽจ What’s the challenge?


Participants are invited to design a front cover for any one of the 73 books of the Bible. Whether through drawing, painting, digital art, or illustration, this is a chance to interpret Scripture through creativity and imagination.


This is a wonderful opportunity for:

  • Children and young people at home over half term
  • Families looking for a meaningful activity
  • Aspiring artists, designers, and illustrators


๐Ÿ† What’s on offer?


  • Seven cash prizes
  • A published catalogue
  • A public exhibition in Lent 2027

The project is led by The God Who Speaks, in partnership with St John’s Waterloo and Art + Christianity, bringing together faith and creativity on a national stage.


โœจ Why take part?

This competition is about more than art—it’s about engaging with the Bible in a new way, reflecting on its stories, and sharing faith through creativity. It’s also a fantastic way for young people to explore Scripture while developing artistic skills.
