Viborg UNESCO Creative City invites all of Denmark and the rest of the world to join in an annual drawing campaign!
Drawing is absolutely fundamental to humankind, regardless of background and origin. The earliest traces of our species are drawings in caves, and most of us draw before we speak.
In Viborg, we have a special and long-standing position of strength in drawing, animation, children’s culture and creativity. We know the value of drawing for children, for young people and adults. Unfortunately, most Danish children stop drawing from the third grade and onwards. This is a problem as we are losing creativity. We strive to change that.
For the last two years Viborg UNESCO Creative City has therefore invited children and young people from all over the world to draw through the global drawing campaign TegnHåb, circling around corona and trust. The ambition is to strengthen our understanding of the value and importance drawing has for children and young people’s creativity and development. Because we have to nourish the passion for drawing.
In the same period, Viborg Municipality created Grønne Sammen (Green Together) – together for a sustainable future – with focus on green transition and sustainability. In this year’s edition, we link the two initiatives, inviting Denmark and the rest of the world to join DrawHope – Green Together 2023 – based on 20 drawing challenges.
This year, we received approx. 1200 drawings from 15 countries spread over five continents, once again making the campaign a global event, and animators in Viborg, Columbia and Georgia are currently working on creating series of animated films based on the drawings. Two animated films are being produced by Multara Al-Ameri, who graduated from The Animation Workshop, and a Colombian animator based on drawings from a 7th grade team in visual arts from Vestre Skole in Viborg and a corresponding team from school in Cali, Columbia. Drawings and animations are shown and projected during VAF in the Music School’s large windows and later in the year in Cali Columbia, York England and in Tbilisi Georgia.

The ANIMOK Youth jury are pupils from the 6th grade
They are taught how to evaluate animated films as members of a jury; what criteria should they judge the films on, how do they analyze films? How do they talk about them?
They will see a specially selected short film program of Danish and foreign short films, discuss the merits of the nominees, and then select a winner.
The goal of the ANIMOK Youth Jury is to provide kids with a forum where their ideas and thoughts are taken seriously. Through community building dialogue and group work, they experience different perspectives and views on the world while being challenged to think differently and watch films in new ways together in order to eventually find one winner.
The films in the program:
Tales of Zale – Flickering Lights – Sif Savery – 2022 – Denmark
With a Wool Ball (Con un ovillo de lana) – 2022
The Swineherd (Svinedrengen) – Magnus Igland Møller, Peter Smith – 2022 – Denmark

Viborg UNESCO Creative City invites all of Denmark and the rest of the world to join in an annual drawing campaign!
Drawing is absolutely fundamental to humankind, regardless of background and origin. The earliest traces of our species are drawings in caves, and most of us draw before we speak.
In Viborg, we have a special and long-standing position of strength in drawing, animation, children’s culture and creativity. We know the value of drawing for children, for young people and adults. Unfortunately, most Danish children stop drawing from the third grade and onwards. This is a problem as we are losing creativity. We strive to change that.
For the last two years Viborg UNESCO Creative City has therefore invited children and young people from all over the world to draw through the global drawing campaign TegnHåb, circling around corona and trust. The ambition is to strengthen our understanding of the value and importance drawing has for children and young people’s creativity and development. Because we have to nourish the passion for drawing.
In the same period, Viborg Municipality created Grønne Sammen (Green Together) – together for a sustainable future – with focus on green transition and sustainability. In this year’s edition, we link the two initiatives, inviting Denmark and the rest of the world to join DrawHope – Green Together 2023 – based on 20 drawing challenges.
This year, we received approx. 1200 drawings from 15 countries spread over five continents, once again making the campaign a global event, and animators in Viborg, Columbia and Georgia are currently working on creating series of animated films based on the drawings. Two animated films are being produced by Multara Al-Ameri, who graduated from The Animation Workshop, and a Colombian animator based on drawings from a 7th grade team in visual arts from Vestre Skole in Viborg and a corresponding team from school in Cali, Columbia. Drawings and animations are shown and projected during VAF in the Music School’s large windows and later in the year in Cali Columbia, York England and in Tbilisi Georgia.

“Storken Richard 2 – and the mystery of the great jewel” is the sequel to Storken Richard, and is directed by Danish animation director Mette Tange, who graduated from The Animation Workshop in Viborg. Storken Richard 2 is her debut film as a director.
The adventurous Richard is actually a sparrow but was raised by storks and got his slightly odd nickname from there.
While wintering in North Africa, he meets the streetwise Samia and her gang of sparrows, who are held captive by the greedy and merciless peacock Zamano. The birds’ only path to freedom is solving a riddle that can bring Zamano the mysterious jewel. To save the sparrows from Zamano’s clutches, Richard decides to set off on an action-packed and dangerous journey. He has his friends Olga and Kiki with him, but also meets lots of new friends on his way…

This year, we received approx. 1200 drawings from 15 countries spread over five continents, once again making the campaign a global event, and animators in Viborg, Columbia and Georgia are currently working on creating series of animated films based on the drawings. Two animated films are being produced by Multara Al-Ameri, who graduated from The Animation Workshop, and a Colombian animator based on drawings from a 7th grade team in visual arts from Vestre Skole in Viborg and a corresponding team from school in Cali, Columbia. Drawings and animations are shown and projected during VAF in the Music School’s large windows and later in the year in Cali Columbia, York England and in Tbilisi Georgia.

Event Details
Viborg UNESCO Creative City invites all of Denmark and the rest of the world to join in an annual drawing campaign!
Drawing is absolutely fundamental to humankind, regardless of background and origin. The earliest traces of our species are drawings in caves, and most of us draw before we speak.
In Viborg, we have a special and long-standing position of strength in drawing, animation, children’s culture and creativity. We know the value of drawing for children, for young people and adults. Unfortunately, most Danish children stop drawing from the third grade and onwards. This is a problem as we are losing creativity. We strive to change that.
For the last two years Viborg UNESCO Creative City has therefore invited children and young people from all over the world to draw through the global drawing campaign TegnHåb, circling around corona and trust. The ambition is to strengthen our understanding of the value and importance drawing has for children and young people’s creativity and development. Because we have to nourish the passion for drawing.
In the same period, Viborg Municipality created Grønne Sammen (Green Together) – together for a sustainable future – with focus on green transition and sustainability. In this year’s edition, we link the two initiatives, inviting Denmark and the rest of the world to join DrawHope – Green Together 2023 – based on 20 drawing challenges.

Film x Dialogue: Faith, hope and love – Young narrator
In this event, students will meet 4 young Danish talents in film and literature. With the programme, we focus on how they use their passion for storytelling and their artistic craft as a voice for and about the youth. The students will see films, read comics, hear readings of youth literature, and there will be plenty of opportunity to ask the young artists questions when we set up a conversation about what matters to young people today and what stories they create through their own youth culture.
The talk will be facilitated by playwright Josephine Eusebius Olhoff-Jakobsen
