ICICI Bank Ltd, the countryâs largest private sector bank, launched the second season of âCreative Mastersâ, a unique online drawing competition where participants can draw on three themes- âFamily and friendsâ, âNationâ and âPlanetâ. Spanning over 45 days, the contest aims to connect with lakhs of people, felicitate artists who will be handpicked by an eminent jury and support social causes through donation of the proceeds from sale of select entries.
Anyone above four years of age can take part in âCreative Mastersâ by submitting their drawing online at www.icicibank.com/creativemasters. The participants can also choose to sit and draw at any ICICI Bank branch on âCreative Saturdayâ, planned on August 8, 2015 and upload their entries on the spot.
Speaking on the initiative, Rajiv Sabharwal, Executive Director, ICICI Bank said: âIt gives me immense pleasure to bring to our customers the second season of âCreative Mastersâ programme which offers the participants an opportunity to support a social cause through their own expression of art. Through its first season of âCreative Mastersâ, ICICI Bank has donated Rs 10 lac to support social causes through GiveIndia. With over 3,00,000 registrations within the first few weeks of the launch, we believe this initiative has influenced large number of people.â
Select entries will be offered for sale and the proceeds will be donated to support social causes through âGiveIndiaâ, a not-for-profit organisation that aims to provide resources to credible non-governmental organisations.
The eminent jury includes Prof G. G. Waghmare, Dean of Sir J.J Institute of Applied Arts and Mr. Uday Parkar, co-founder of Breathing Space, an advertising agency.
