New Brunswick artists are needed for the 10th International Jeux de la Francophonie.

They’ll be held in Yerevan, Armenia, from July 23 to Aug. 1, 2027.

The Games bring together thousands of young people from participating countries and governments of the Francophonie, who excel in athletic and cultural activities.

Artists can apply for a place on Team Canada-New Brunswick in one of four disciplines: painting, photography, song or short story.

The last Games were held in 2023 in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo. Two artists from New Brunswick participated in the cultural competitions.

You must be between the ages of 18 and 35.

The Canadian delegation to the Jeux de la Francophonie is made up of three teams: Canada, Canada-Quebec and Canada-New Brunswick.

The deadline for submissions is April 30.
