2025 marks 80 years since the end of the Second World War, with Victory in Europe (VE) Day on 8 May 1945.

To help celebrate, Mid Devon District Council invites all young artists across Mid Devon to get creative this Easter. Children of all ages are invited to design a colourful, vibrant poster that captures the spirit of celebration. Think street parties, poppies, waving Union Flags and emotional family reunions — anything that symbolises the joy felt on VE Day.

The creator of the winning entry will receive a VE Day Commemorative Flag and a fish and chip supper for their family – the perfect tribute to this historic day!

The deadline for entries is Friday, 2 May 2025. Artwork can be submitted either by post or email:
