KFC Ghana has unveiled an exciting new initiative to celebrate the nation’s vibrant art scene.
The KFC Art Competition invites talented Ghanaian artists to submit original works inspired by local themes, landmarks and flavours for a chance to win cash prizes, a year of free KFC meals, and the prestigious opportunity to have their artwork displayed in KFC stores across the country.
The competition welcomes diverse artistic expressions including paintings, drawings, sketches, graffiti and sculptures – all of which should authentically reflect Ghanaian life and traditions.
Submissions opened on April 11 and will remain open until May 7, 2025, giving artists ample time to send in their entries. To enter, participants must submit high-resolution images of their artwork along with an artist profile via Google Drive to [email protected].
The selection process will be engaging and transparent, beginning with the competition committee shortlisting the Top 10 submissions. These will then be put to a public vote on KFC Ghana’s social media platforms to determine the Top 5 finalists.
The final round will see a panel that will include art industry experts evaluating these finalists to select the Top 3 winners.
The winning artists will be announced in June 2025, with their work featured in KFC locations nationwide throughout the year. Beyond the grand prizes, the competition offers participants valuable exposure, as KFC Ghana plans to highlight the top submissions across its digital platforms.
Derick Darko, Marketing Manager of KFC Ghana, emphasised the competition’s broader significance. “This initiative goes beyond just displaying art – it’s about celebrating Ghana’s creative heartbeat. We’re honoured to create this national stage that not only recognises artistic talent but also weaves it into the everyday experiences of our customers through our restaurant spaces.”
Art enthusiasts and aspiring participants are encouraged to follow KFC Ghana’s official social media channels for competition updates and to witness the incredible talent on display.
With its unique blend of cultural celebration and brand engagement, the KFC Art Competition promises to be a landmark initiative in Ghana’s art calendar this year.
