Bring your family. Bring a friend. Come ready to support our young entrepreneurs!

Meet another winner of the 2026 International Children’s Art & Poetry Contest!

This talented young artist Ayana Mayaz Tabassum from Bangladesh has big plans for her prize money, she’s saving it for her next vacation!

At Mamai Art Gallery, we are so grateful to witness the many ways these opportunities touch children’s lives. Sometimes it’s through art, sometimes through encouragement, and sometimes by giving a child the freedom to dream, celebrate, and make plans for something special.

We are incredibly thankful to everyone who continues to support Mamai Art Gallery and help us silently impact children around the world, one child at a time.

Why We Do What We Do.

One of the winners of the International Children’s Art & Poetry Contest 2026 is using her prize money to start her very own baking business!

What may seem like a small prize to some is becoming the beginning of a dream, a business, and an opportunity for a young entrepreneur to believe in what she is capable of. Congratulations Laelynn Nachwa from Uganda.

I am deeply grateful to everyone who has donated, sponsored, encouraged, volunteered, and supported Mamai Art Gallery throughout the years. To mention a few of the our most consistent sponsors; Amy Gould, Warren Browne, Beatrice Nyakaisiki and In A Pickle Restaurant.

Because of your generosity, we are able to create opportunities that reach far beyond the walls of our creative space.

We may not always see the impact immediately.
But quietly, consistently, and silently—we are impacting children around the world.

We are planting seeds of creativity, confidence, entrepreneurship, and hope.

And one day, we get to watch those seeds grow.
Thank you for believing in the children.

Thank you for believing in Mamai Art Gallery. And thank you for helping us keep the dream alive.

What an incredible honor!

My heart is overflowing with gratitude as we celebrate this special recognition from the City of Waltham, Massachusetts.

Mamai Art Gallery and the International Children’s Convention have been presented with an Official Proclamation recognizing the 10th Anniversary of the Waltham Children’s Business Fair and a decade of empowering young entrepreneurs, encouraging creativity, and strengthening our community through children and families.

Ten years ago, this was just a dream. Today, it has grown into a movement that has inspired hundreds of young creators, artists, inventors, and business owners to believe in themselves and share their talents with the world.

Thank you to Mayor Jeannette A. McCarthy, the City of Waltham, our volunteers, sponsors, families, and every child who has participated over the years. This recognition belongs to all of you.

Most of all, I thank God for His Grace. Every milestone is a reminder that with vision, perseverance, and His guidance, extraordinary things are possible.

To the next generation of leaders, creators, and entrepreneurs and to many more years of investing in children!

Thank you, Waltham, for believing in our mission.
