Nextgen Interarts Foundation
Welcome to NextGen InterArts Foundation, where creativity meets opportunity!
We empower the next generation through interdisciplinary arts education that connects creativity, culture, and global opportunity.
As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, we design competitions, workshops, and international programs that help students think across disciplines, expand their perspectives, and develop the skills needed for an evolving world.
At the heart of our work is a commitment to cultivating a healthy mindset, supporting mental well-being, and building inclusive creative communities where young people can grow with confidence and purpose.
Contest will be open for submission August 2026!
The XC Creative Art Contest celebrates cross-disciplinary creativity — with no set theme.
Students are encouraged to push boundaries and explore the intersections of art with science, music, literature, and beyond, guided only by their imagination.
Open to participants in grades 6 to 12, the contest fosters innovation, originality, and critical thinking.
