About Competition


The Golden Pinwheel Young Illustrators Competition is an international illustration contest held annually as part of the China Shanghai International Children’s Book Fair (CCBF), with the support of the Shanghai Press and Publication Administration. Since its creation in 2015, the competition has been providing a venue for emerging illustrators to showcase their talent. It aims to build bridges between them and children's publishers, both locally and globally.

There are no limits to the entry theme and content provided that is it suitable for children’s book illustration.

The competition accepts works created manually, digitally or by mixed techniques. A participant must submit a series of five illustrations on the same theme.

In order to give recognition to the most talented artists in the competition, the 2021 Golden Pinwheel is offering a wide array of awards: the Golden Pinwheel Grand Award (rewarding the two most outstanding artworks—one from China and one from overseas), the Golden Pinwheel Special Mentions and the People's Choice Award. In addition, one of the award-winners will be chosen by the CCBF Organising Committee to design the key visual of the 2022 edition of the book fair. The 50 finalists will be featured in 2021 CCBF Golden Pinwheel Young Illustrators Competition Yearbook, which will also be presented at the 2021 Golden Pinwheel Illustration Exhibition held at the book fair from 19 to 21 November.

The winners will be announced on 2 September 2021.
