As the Year of the Horse gallops closer (Chinese New Year falls on February 17, 2026), CGTN recently launched its All Things Horses challenge, inviting art lovers and culture enthusiasts across South and Southeast Asia to showcase horse-inspired creations. Whether you’re sketching your dream stallion, practicing calligraphy for the word "horse" in your native tongue, or crafting a mini sculpture, the stage is yours! 🐴✨
The challenge taps into the rich tapestry of regional traditions. From India’s vibrant Rangoli patterns to Indonesia’s shadow puppetry and Vietnam’s paper lanterns, there’s no limit to how you can blend the spirit of the horse with your cultural flair. It’s about creativity meeting cultural heritage.
Wondering where to start? Grab your pencils, paintbrushes or craft kits, press play on your favorite playlist, and let the ideas flow. Once your masterpiece is ready, share it on social media with the hashtag #AllThingsHorses and tag CGTN. Your work could inspire a wave of positivity and luck as we trot into the Year of the Horse.
Whether you’re a seasoned artist or just looking for a fun project, this challenge is a chance to connect with a global community, celebrate cultural diversity and ring in 2026 with creative flair. So, are you ready to let your imagination run free? 🎨🖌️
