Most kids draw silly pictures with the expectation of being put on their parents' fridge, but Goldfish's child-drawn billboards offer recognition on a grander scale. This adorable outdoor campaign tasked young artists with creating the next ad campaign for the iconic snack brand. The end result is an adorable and highly creative series of images hand-drawn by five young artists.
Noah age 4, Kayla, age 11, Kabir age 5, Eugenia age 8, and Alexis age 6 were the selected winners for this drawing contest, with their work being featured on billboards throughout Ontario. In addition, Goldfish turned three of the kids' drawings into story books. The purpose of this campaign was to place imagination and joy at the forefront.
