Celebrate World Art Day with Crayola!
Every year on April 15th, artists from across the globe join together in an inspiring fusion of culture and color to celebrate World Art Day. Established by UNESCO in 2019, World Art Day was founded on the principle that art could be an international celebration of diversity, creativity, and innovation, giving artists and craftsmen of all kinds a chance to showcase and share their own unique talents.
From Japanese Origami to Mexican Huichol beading to Ukrainian Pysanky Eggs, and much, much more, World Art Day is a time when we can all slow down and set a few hours aside with our families to learn and try something creative and new. Who knows? You just might find a new hobby or talent you never knew you had!
Whether you’re supporting local artists at a nearby craft fair or perusing priceless works at the local art gallery or celebrating at home with the ones you love, there’s no wrong way to enjoy World Art Day!
Crayola World Culture

Crayola Adventures
As the years pass and you find your kids looking for their next creative challenge, why not try our latest colorful creation with Crayola Adventures?
Adventures is the newest way for Crayola fans to craft, author, and take control of their own original stories. Sit them down in the writer’s chair as they draw original characters, mold and color a litany of props, and lend their writing chops to three unique genres. Once they’re done, all they have to do is, sit back, relax, and watch as it’s all brought to life before their eyes.
You can even join your little creatives and write a story 100% from scratch thanks to the Adventures Story Builder. It just goes to show, you’re never too old to create with Crayola!
Time to Celebrate!
As we celebrate World Art Day on April 15th, we can’t emphasize enough the important role that global artistic diversity plays in our own individual creativity. The more we can share with one another, the more our own creative outlook can grow and evolve, giving us new opportunities to try or learn something bold and new, whether it’s French Impressionism, Vietnamese Wood Carving, Aboriginal Dot Painting, and anything else you can think of.
But if you find yourself on the go with no crafts in sight, or if your kids simply want to try something new, step into the colorful world of Crayola with Create & Play, Crayola Scribble Scrubbie Pets, and Crayola Adventures! Happy crafting!
