We are pleased to announce that the Polish Aviation Museum in Kraków — as in previous years — is also in 2025 a co-organiser of the nationwide art competition for children, young people and families Magic of Flight. This year’s edition is held under the theme “Wings of Hope” — the finalists will be announced in autumn, but we already invite you to the opening of the post-competition exhibition, which will take place in the Main Hangar.
We invite children, young people and entire families to join in creative fun! This year’s edition combines the worlds of literature, art and imagination, and the leading theme “Wings of Hope” opens wide possibilities for artistic expression.
Why is it worth taking part?
Let your imagination soar high — on the wings of hope!
Who can take part?
We invite:
This is an excellent opportunity to create something beautiful, inspiring and full of emotion together — at home or at school.
Work topic
Participants are tasked with creating an artwork inspired by any literary work. The subject can be any form of flight — from a fairy-tale balloon journey, through a poetic flight of a bird, to a futuristic airship or the wings of imagination. What counts is the idea, the form and artistic passion.
